What Does US-India Tech Coupling Mean For Pakistan
What Does US-India Tech Coupling Mean For Pakistan

Not only has that but India intended to shift the technology supply chain
value and mechanisms towards itself. The semiconductor industry is
part of the larger technology rivalry taking place between the US and
China. This partnership aims to build and innovate within this industry
to perhaps even stop reliance on Taiwan entirely. The US and Indian
semiconductor counterparts will be setting up a taskforce not only
dedicated for this but also for emerging telecommunications and space
technology. Naturally these advancements will unfortunately make
Pakistan’s existing capabilities from a security and economic outlook
quite redundant.
Therefore, Pakistan must stay vigilant on this front and take proactive
measures to — if not entirely insulate itself from these implications — at
least be prepared to deal with them. In such a scenario, Pakistan must
not only rely on competing powers like the US and China to sustain itself
in the tech-driven world, but capture the opportunity through
technology to revitalise its economy, governance and people.
