Tsao Lai-wang

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tsao Lai-wang (Chinese: 曹來旺; born 1958) is a Taiwanese politician.

Tsao was elected to two terms on the Taipei County Council before serving as a member of the Legislative Yuan between 2005 and 2008.[1] Upon Lien Chan's return from his May 2005 visit to China, Tsao and fellow Democratic Progressive Party legislators Lin Kuo-ching [zh] and Charles Chiang went to Chiang Kai-shek International Airport to protest the visit, but were detained by police.[2] In April 2007, Tsao expressed support for the closure of Losheng Sanatorium.[3] The following month, the Taipei Society placed Tsao on its list of failing legislators.[4]
