Ann Chiang Lai-wan, JP, (Chinese: 蔣麗芸 was born on 16 May 1955)[1] is the chair of C&L Holdings and a member of Hong Kong Legislative Council. She is the second daughter of Chiang Chen who is a Hong Kong entrepreneur.
Background
Chiang was a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference from 1993 to 2013.
In 2000, Chiang joined Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB) and was appointed as the vice-chairman of the organisation in 2007.[2] In 1981, she received a Bachelor of Arts from Concordia University.
Since 2005, she has served as non-executive director in Elec & Eltek International Holdings and chairman of C&L Holdings.[3][4] Chiang has been interested in Conditioning farming system.[clarification needed]
In 2006, Chiang started serving on the council board of City University of Hong Kong.[5]
In 2012, Chiang was elected member of Member of Legislative Council (Representative for Kowloon West) and retained her seat in 2016.
Though the Cantonese language is predominate in Hong Kong, Chiang took her 2016 oath of office in Mandarin Chinese. After the government sought to prevent localist candidates from taking office for not reading their oaths accurately, it was pointed out that Chiang had mispronounced several words in Mandarin, thus calling the validity of her oath into question.[6]
