Meiling Villa History

Meiling Villa History:

Song Meiling

Song Meiling (1898-2003!) lived a long and influential life. Being raised as a Christian and receiving most of her childhood education in USA she felt her viewpoint was very Western. Once she remarked that “the only thing Oriental about me is my face.” In 1927 she married Chiang Kai-Shek. This marriage added legitimacy to the rule of Chiang Kai-shek since her older sister was previously the wife of Sun Yat-sen (1866-1925). Song Meiling was instrumental in retaining US support for the Nationalist Party both on the Chinese Mainland and in Taiwan.
