History of Changes

Data correction: TSMC's Feb 6, 2024 release scheduled JASM's second fab to begin operation by the end of 2027; the record showed January 2027. TSMC later delayed the construction start over traffic congestion, and press reports suggest operations could slip to 2029, but TSMC has not restated a new operating date.
