Luo Ying-shay (Chinese: 羅瑩雪; pinyin: Luó Yíngxuě) is a Taiwanese politician who served as the Minister of Justice from 30 September 2013 until 20 May 2016.
Luo graduated with a bachelor's degree from the Department of Law of the National Taiwan University. She received her master's degree in criminal justice from the University at Albany in the United States.
Luo became a lecturer at the Central Police University in Taoyuan in 1977.
In April 2012, Luo, on behalf of President Ma Ying-jeou, officiated a traditional ceremony to salute Genghis Khan of the Mongol Empire with some 200 Mongolians living in Taiwan. Luo said that Khan was a man with great talent and bold vision who broke ground and expanded frontiers. Luo and other dignitaries then offered flowers, incense and silk.
In early April 2013, the plan to merge the Mongolian and Tibetan Affairs Commission (MTAC) with the Mainland Affairs Council (MAC) became an area of concern. Responding to the confusion, Luo said that the merger was not ideal, as approaching relations to Mongolia through the MAC might have caused the Mongolian government to believe that Taiwan's position was that Mongolia was a part of the People's Republic of China. Luo further clarified that direct Mongolia–Taiwan relations were diplomatic, while ethnic Mongolians and Tibetans in China and Taiwan were covered under Cross–Strait and domestic policies, respectively.
