Huang Jian-jhong (Chinese: 黃健忠; Wade–Giles: Huang2 Chien4-chung1; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: N̂g Kiān-tiong; born 10 October 1976), or Huang Chien-chung,[1] is a Taiwanese politician who has served as the mayor of Magong since 2022. A member of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Huang was previously chairman of the party's Penghu County Office Committee.

Early years[edit]

Huang was born in Wukan Village in Magong, Penghu. He attended the National Penghu Institute of Technology.[2]

Magong mayoralty[edit]

Huang was actively involved in Penghu local politics, previously serving as president of the Wukan Community Development Association. In 2016, he was elected within the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) as the chairman of its Penghu County Office Committee.[2][3] He received the DPP nomination for mayor of Magong in 2018,[4] though he ultimately lost that race.

Huang was elected mayor in 2022, the same year that his DPP colleague Chen Kuang-fu was elected magistrate of Penghu.[5]

In April 2023, Huang attended a community event as part of the Ministry of Health and Welfare "community flagship" program, where each village community in a county is assigned a policy priority; if a community implements a successful program, then it is elevated to a "flagship community" and its program replicated in other communities. Under Huang's term, Chaoyang Village kicked off with social safety net, and other communities were assigned priorities such as women's welfare, immigrant welfare, substance abuse prevention.[6]

In September 2023, Huang signed a joint declaration with Fengbin chief Chiu Fu-shun Hualien County to establish a sister city partnership between the two localities.[7]

In November 2023, Huang announced 19 major initiatives in his mayoral general report, including disaster prevention and management, infrastructure, and cultural and creative industries.[8]

Personal life[edit]

Huang and former Magong mayor Ye Jhu-lin are cousins.[9]
