description: "Henry Liu, often known by his pen name Chiang Nan, was a Taiwanese-American writer and journalist. He was a vocal critic of the Kuomintang, then the single ruling party of the Republic of China in Taiwan, and was most famous for writing an unauthorized biography of Chiang Ching-kuo, then president of the Republic of China. He later became a naturalized citizen of the United States, and resided in Daly City, California, where he was assassinated by Bamboo Union members who had been reportedly trained by the Kuomintang's military intelligence division."
