Message from the Chairman

A Lifelong Commitment to Education

Education has always been regarded as a lifelong mission for me. With deep passion and commitment, I have devoted myself to advancing educational development. On January 18, 2023, I was honored to assume the position of Chairman of the Board of Kang Ning University — following my previous service as Chairman of Chiying Senior High School in 2005 and Chairman of Jhih-Ping Senior High School in 2011.

Background and Beliefs

Values That Shape Our Institution

Personal Philosophy

I grew up in a humble family and lost my father at the age of five. Under the devoted care and guidance of my mother, I learned the importance of perseverance and responsibility.

After achieving success in my career, my wife, Mrs. Mei-Chih Wang, and I have actively engaged in philanthropy, education, and charitable activities as a way to give back to society. Through these experiences, we have come to value five fundamental principles — values that now serve as the foundation of education and the guiding spirit of Kang Ning University:

Respect for Life Filial Piety & Respect for Elders Responsibility & Accountability Honesty & Integrity Teamwork & Cooperation
