If the long URL doesn't work the takeaway is

"Top Taiwanese laptop-maker Asus is moving its key supplier from China to 
India"

https://www.slashgear.com/1551223/acer-products-where-are-they-made/

" According to a 2022 report published by Acer detailing its production 
suppliers, the company noted that all of its final assembly and component 
manufacturers are located in China — a fairly common occurrence for major 
Taiwan-based organizations, including Foxconn and its factories. In total, 
the Acer has 12 major final assembly suppliers in the neighboring 
country."

Back when Japan was saturating the US market there was a joke about 'Made 
in Usa'  where Usa was a town on the outskirts of Tokyo.
