Due to the earthquake, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC), the world‘s largest maker of advanced chips, stopped its chip-making machinery and evacuated its staff. Bloomberg reports.

Smaller local rival United Microelectronics also stopped machinery at some factories and evacuated facilities at its hubs in Hsinchu and Tainan, it said in a statement.
