Chiang Wan-an (Chinese: 蔣萬安; 26 December 1978) is a Taiwanese politician. Born 章萬安 and formerly known as Wayne Chang, he is the son of John Chiang and a grandson of Chiang Ching-kuo. Chiang Wan-an worked as a business lawyer prior to beginning a political career.
Born Wayne Chang (章萬安) on 26 December 1978, he is the only son to his parents John Chiang and Helen Huang. He has two elder sisters.
He was unaware of his relation to the Chiang Kai-shek family until high school, when his father told Chiang and his siblings in a late-night talk. Following the announcement, the family changed their surname from "Chang" to "Chiang".
Chiang was a student at the Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University and Taipei Municipal Jianguo High School. Upon graduation, he attended National Chengchi University where he majored in law and international relations.
Upon graduation from National Chengchi University, he worked for the law firm Lee and Li. Later, Chiang became an aide in the National Assembly. He was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania Law School in 2002, and left for the United States. After Chiang earned his degree, he practiced law in the United States before returning to Taiwan in 2013.
Chiang faced Lo Shu-lei in the first round of the Kuomintang party primary in April 2015. After Lo failed to build a sufficient lead, another primary was called the next month, which Chiang won. He ran as the KMT candidate for Taipei City's third constituency in the 2016 legislative elections and won a seat in the Legislative Yuan. The Taipei District Prosecutors’ Office ended an investigation of vote-buying accusations against Chiang in March, but did not charge him with wrongdoing.
