Talk:James Soong

message: (Quick Note): I'm not exactly clear what the first sentence means (on Taiwan?)
Maybe Taiwanese media has extremely good etiquette, but despite the controversies about James Soong's son, only detailed info on James Soong is available, not on his son. For example, the most basic info: what is the son's English name? English translations of Chinese news simply uses half-decent Wade-Giles: Soong Chen-yuan (combining a non-Wade surname). 
But obviously Soong Chen-yuan would not use this order in the USA, regardless how Chinese he is. But it's apparently not Chen-yuan Soong or Chenyuan Soong. Nor is it his Chinese give name with "Sung" or "Song". So he probably has an English name like his father. In any case, Googling around showed no result. I just thought that if we have his son's name here, we should have his "real" name too, since he's American.

"Soong is rumored to have close ties to organized crime as exemplified by his cordial friendship with convicted racketeer and local heavy, Yen Ching-piao." 
The statement above by the pro-independence anon could not be verfied. Googling both names at once does not present a direct relationship, except in a highly biased article by the Taipei times. And in that article, it just stated "And in fact only a few days before Chen's visit to the pilgrimage, PFP Chairman James Soong (宋楚瑜) and KMT Vice Chairman Wang Jin-pyng (王金平) turned up at the start of the pilgrimage to pay their respects to Yen." This does not imply there was a close relationship. --Jiang 06:32, 11 Aug 2003 (UTC)

message: I see that Lafayette scandal and hints of bribery were in the past removed from this airbrushed BLP. I will re add it to the page with a reliable source. I warn those out there, who repeatedly remove sourced information, because it sheds an unpleasant light on Mr Soong.--Wuerzele (talk) 00:14, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
