Even the original Turbo Pascal for CP/M was fast (e.g. running on the 2MHz Z80 SoftCard for the Apple II).

Where you twice mention ROC, I think you instead meant PRC.

ROC is Republic of China, which is the government that started in 1911 and currently has its actual seat of government in Taipei, ruling over all of Taiwan province and some parts of Fujian province (Kinmen, Matsu). On paper, ROC still claims all the other provinces of China.

PRC is People's Republic of China, which is the government that started in 1949, currently has its seat of government in Beijing, and rules mainland China and most of Fujian province. On paper, PRC claims all provinces of China, including Taiwan province as well as the parts of Fujian province that are currently part of ROC.

Western outsourcing to ROC occurred much earlier than the 90s.
