It's a rather odd article that misses the point completely and lacks cultural and historical understanding. Taiwan is a province of China and China is currently split between the PRC on the mainland and the ROC in Taiwan. The aim is to reunify China and that aim is shared by a portion of the population in Taiwan as well (except that they don't want the communists in power...) TSMC and the Taiwanese semiconductors industry are a way for Taiwan to survive and up the ante but they are not the point.
