Education

Wang earned a bachelor's degree in political science from Soochow University, and pursued a master's degree in the same subject at National Taiwan Normal University.[1]

Career

Wang worked for the Taoyuan City Government during the mayoralty of Cheng Wen-tsan.[1][2] He served as deputy labor minister in the Tsai Ing-wen presidential administration. In this role, Wang frequently commented on initiatives and policies affecting migrant workers, including negotiations with the Indonesian government on employment fees,[3] revisions to self-isolation guidelines during a 2021 outbreak of COVID-19,[4] and the opening of a Taoyuan-based service center for migrant workers in 2022.[5] Wang participated in negotiations between EVA Airways and the Taoyuan Union of Pilots, which avoided a strike during the Lunar New Year holiday of 2024.[6] In May of that year, Wang retained his post when William Lai assumed the presidency.[7] In July, Wang announced that the Lai administration would reduce restrictions on the hiring of foreign caretakers.[8]
