Wang Ching-feng (Chinese: 王慶豐; born 1933) is a Taiwanese politician.
Wang Ching-feng sat on the Hualien County Council and was its speaker.[1] Wang, a member of the Kuomintang, defeated Chen Yung-hsing, the Democratic Progressive Party candidate, in the 1993 Hualien County magisterial election.[2] Wang ran for reelection against the DPP's Michael You, in 1997.[3] Infrastructure projects focusing on flood prevention took place during his first term, including the dredging and riverbank fortification of Hualien City's Meilun River. Meilun Hill was reclaimed and transformed into a park, which was completed in 1995.[4] In his second term, Wang advocated for the Executive Yuan to distribute more money to local county governments.[5][6] During his second term, Hualien was impacted by typhoons. In August 2000, Typhoon Bilis hit Hualien County,[7] followed by Typhoon Toraji in July 2001. As Toraji caused landslides and floods, Wang attended the Kuomintang's sixteenth National Congress.[8] Interior minister Chang Po-ya and legislator Chou Hsi-wei criticized Wang for his absence from Hualien.[8][9] The Control Yuan began an investigation into Wang's actions in August 2001.[10] In 2004, Wang took part in a committee convened by the Legislative Yuan to investigate the 3-19 shooting incident.[11]
Wang Chin-feng's son Wang Ting-son served on the Legislative Yuan from 2010 to 2016.[12][13]
