King Pu-tsung ( Chinese: 金溥聰; pinyin: Jīn Pǔcōng; born 30 August 1956 in Tainan, Taiwan) is a Taiwanese politician. He served as the Secretary-General of the National Security Council from 25 March 2014 until 12 February 2015. King was widely regarded as the most important aide to Ma Ying-jeou.[ citation needed] He served as the Secretary-General of Kuomintang (KMT) from December 2009 to January 2011. [5] King also served as Vice Mayor of Taipei [6] from 2002 to 2006 and had previously been a scholar [7] and journalist. King is alleged to be a descendant of the Aisin Gioro clan.

Early life

King earned his bachelor's degree in journalism from Chinese National Chengchi University, then studied abroad to earn a master's degree in mass communications from Texas Tech University and a Ph.D. in journalism from the University of Texas, Austin in United States. [8]

Early career

King had taught at National Chengchi University. He also had taught at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in Hong Kong. [9]

KMT Secretary-General

As Secretary-General, King pledged to sort out financial questions of national funds that had been mixed with party assets, [7] and urged party members to provide more than "lip service" to support party candidates in the run-up to the mayoral elections at the end of 2010. [10]

Personal life

King is alleged to be related to the last Qing emperor Puyi, although lack of genealogical evidence has raised suspicions. [11] Were his relation to the imperial family true, he would also be the cousin of Puru and his surname King a sinified adoption of the Qing imperial clan name Aisin Gioro.
