Critical support for any and all these problems to keep popping up.

Among the allegations in the complaint are that TSMC's HR team in Taiwan sends the U.S. arm of the company the resumes of candidates that have already been vetted and can work in the U.S., and then the U.S. team "simply hire these Asian/Taiwanese candidates without question, even if no open roles have been posted in the U.S."

I don't really see how this is a valid complaint, the Taiwanese workers are just easier and more efficient to train into their processes because there's no language or culture gap.

The suit also claims that a desire for Mandarin or Chinese language skills have been listed

Just learn Mandarin, f**kers. IDK how y'all think learning some Mandarin isn't necessary to work in a Taiwanese company.

If the USA wants make these inefficient requests of TSMC now, they should have made all these desires clear beforehand. If they did, TSMC may not have been as eager to go through with the US fab. Changing the deal afterwards is a classic American bullshittery.

Mandarin or Chinese

Are they implying Mandarin is not Chinese?

They could be differentiating between Traditional Mandarin, and mainland simplified mandarin which is more commonly accepted as “Chinese”. Especially since traditional mandarin is still the official written form of Chinese in Taiwan, as they rejected the Maoist era reforms.
