Chang Wen-ying (or Chang Wen-ing; ; born 26 July 1950) is a Taiwanese politician.
She was imprisoned for two years after performing plastic surgery on Shih Ming-teh, who was attempting to flee Taiwan shortly after the Kaohsiung Incident. After her release, Chang ran unsuccessfully for a seat on the National Assembly in 1986. With the help of Taichung mayor Chen Tuan-tang, Chang was elected to the Taiwan Provincial Consultative Council (TPCC) in 1989. She married Chen's son Chen Wen-hsien in 1990.[1] Upon the end of her second term on the TPCC, Chang served as Mayor of Taichung from 1997 to 2001.[2] She left the Democratic Progressive Party run an independent mayoral campaign in 2001, after finishing low in opinion polls.[3] [4] Her bid for reelection split the Pan-Green Coalition vote between herself and Michael Tsai, allowing Jason Hu to win.[5]
