WONG CHING-WAI or WANG CHING-WEI [aka. WANG JINGWEI] . Although the title page spells the author's name as: "WONG Ching-wai" this was a common transliteration of Chinese names at that time. WorldCat also names him as: Zhaoming Wang. Wang Ching-Wei [1883-1944] was born as Wang Zhaoming [Wang Chao-ming]. He was widely known by his 'pen name' "Jingwei," as a Chinese politician, at first and ally, only later to turn against Sun Yat-sen, the KMT party and become a despised traitor and Japanese Government sympathizer during second Sino-Japanese war 1937-1945. He has been hated and the subject of shame to the Chinese both Nationalists and Communists. Wang was initially a member of the left wing of the Kuomintang [KMT] party, but later became increasingly anti-communist after his efforts to collaborate with the Chinese Communist Party [CCP] ended in political failure. His political orientation veered sharply to the right later in his career. Wang was a close associate of Sun Yat-sen during the last twenty years of Sun's life. After Sun's death, Wang engaged in a political struggle with Chiang Kai-shek for control over the Kuomintang Party, but he lost. Wang remained inside the Kuomintang, but continued to have disagreements with Chiang until the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1937. After which he accepted a controversial invitation to form a "Japanese-supported" collaborationist government in Nanjing. Wang served as the head of that Chinese state for the Japanese until he died, shortly before the end of World War II. Although he is still regarded as an important contributor in the Xinhai Revolution, the typical narratives often regard him as a traitor in the "War of Resistance."
