TAIPEI, April 7 (Reuters) \u2013 China is targeting Taiwan to obtain its advanced chip manufacturing technology and talent as a way of breaking through international \u201ccontainment\u201d of the country, according to a report from the island\u2019s top security agency.<\/p>\n

China\u2019s \u200bscramble for chip talent and expertise has intensified as Beijing pushes for \u200cself-reliance in advanced semiconductors, amid a deepening tech rivalry with the U.S.<\/p>\n

Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory, frequently reports busting networks of Chinese firms illegally trying to poach semiconductor and high-tech talent, and has strict laws to prevent the most advanced technologies going to China.<\/p>\n

In a report to lawmakers, \u200cTaiwan\u2019s \u200bNational Security Bureau said that China is attempting to \u201clure\u201d \u2060Taiwan\u2019s high-tech industries, including AI \u2060and semiconductors, to establish or retain operations in China.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt also continues to use indirect channels to poach Taiwanese talent, steal technology, and procure controlled goods, with the aim of obtaining key core technologies and products such as Taiwan\u2019s advanced-process chips, thereby \u200bbreaking through international technological containment.\u201d<\/p>\n

China\u2019s Taiwan Affairs Office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. China says Taiwan is one of its provinces and will eventually \u2060come under Beijing\u2019s control.<\/p>\n

Taiwan is home to TSMC, \u2060the world\u2019s largest contract chipmaker and major supplier to companies including \u200bNvidia and Apple.<\/p>\n

China is also expected to use a range of hybrid methods, including deepfakes \u200band fake opinion polls, to interfere in Taiwan\u2019s year-end local elections, according \u200cto the report, a copy of which was reviewed by Reuters.<\/p>\n

Taiwan\u2019s Government Service Network was targeted by more than 170 million intrusion attempts in the first quarter of this year, added the reported, delivered ahead of bureau Director-General Tsai Ming-yen taking lawmaker questions on \u2060Wednesday.<\/p>\n
