At one point in my past I was the "stinky coworker". I wore deodorant, I showered daily, I washed my clothes after every wearing. My boss did have THAT conversation with me, and started using cologne to cover it. Don't think it fixed it but it covered it enough that I kept the job for a bit.
Eventually my mother, who I was living with, bought a new washer / dryer. My stinkiness factor went to effectively nothing. I'm pretty sure there was some mold/bacteria/whatever in the old washer that was causing the stink.
It may not be the stinky persons fault, and they may not even know what's causing it.
Taiwan is important culturally to China for history reasons. But it's much important financially and technoly wise due to tsmc. That was the true point of the chips act so us technology wouldn't be so reliant of Taiwan but I doubt Trump understands that.
