Chen Li-an


Chen Li-an, sometimes spelled Chen Lu-an, is an electrical engineer, mathematician and former Taiwanese politician.
While he still considered the Kuomintang a "rotten party", Chen endorsed the KMT candidate Lien Chan in the 2000 ROC presidential election, believing that Lien was unlike the rest of the Kuomintang.
In January 2001, Chen re-joined the Kuomintang, because he thought both the party and Taiwan needed him.
