TAIPEI -- An top Intel Corp. executive in Asia last week encouraged Taiwanese manufacturers to invest more in research and development in order to keep up with the rest of the world.

Stanley Huang, director of advanced technical sales & service for the Asia-Pacific region, also said Intel would keep its own R&D in the U.S.

"I suggest more investment in R&D,” Huang told the show daily of the Computex trade show: “Taiwanese manufacturing['s] competitive advantage is in its global operational experience, including aspects such as global supply chain management; this cannot be surpassed by competitors anytime soon. Taiwanese companies have many good people with global vision. They should take advantage of this, rather than compete with others for plant and market scale."
