Chungsen (C. S.) Leung (Chinese: 梁中心) (born July 14, 1950) is a Taiwanese born Canadian businessman and Conservative politician who was formerly the MP for Willowdale. After his election in the 2011 federal election, Leung was appointed as the Parliamentary Secretary for Multiculturalism, a role he held until his defeat in the 2015 federal election.
Chungsen Leung was born in Taipei, Taiwan on July 14, 1950. He pursued his secondary education in Japan. As the international community gradually recognized the mainland People's Republic of China in the 1960s, he feared that he could become stateless as a person born in Taiwan. He immigrated to Canada in 1968, where he received a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in economics and business at Carleton University. Leung later earned a Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Management and Engineering from the University of Southern California.
Leung is an entrepreneur with business experiences in disaster mitigation management, urban mass transit projects, building environmentally friendly houses, air & water purification systems, sports equipment retailing and red deer farming too. Chungsen also has business experience in the tourism and hospitality sector.
He was a business owner and chief executive officer of four Richmond Hill small and medium size enterprises, as well as, a past director and audit chair of the Xenos Group, a Toronto Stock Exchange listed public company in software development and engineering, and a director with Active Growth Capital.
His international business experience includes being a member of numerous federal and provincial trade missions during the last two decades; the Toronto-Chongqing Sister City Twinning Mission; organizing the 1st Team Richmond Hill Mission to Asia Pacific; Richmond Hill – Shijiazhuang Sister City Twinning Mission, a member of the Advisory Board for Ontario Export Inc. and the bid team leader to host the 1997 World Chinese Entrepreneur Convention in Toronto.
