Timeline

1913

Henry Kao or Kao Yu-shu (3 September 1913 – 15 June 2005) was a Taiwanese politician.

1954

He served as Mayor of Taipei from 1954 to 1957 and again between 1964 and 1972, when he was named Minister of Transportation and Communications.

Kao won his first term as mayor of Taipei in 1954, with the support of the China Democratic Socialist Party.

1957

He ran again in 1957 and lost due to suspected voter fraud.

1960

Kao ended his 1960 bid for the Taipei mayoralty when the Kuomintang barred him from asking citizens to watch the polling areas in an attempt to combat electoral fraud.

1963

In 1963, the government agreed to hold fairer elections and allowed Kao to run.

Though KMT candidate Chou Pai-lien was expected to win, Kao repeatedly challenged Chou to debates that Chou continually ignored.

Due to the disagreement about debate attendance, Kao managed to win an upset victory.

Because the Kuomintang also lost the mayoralties of Tainan and Keelung in 1963, Chiang Kai-shek made Taipei a special municipality in 1967.

As a result, Taipei City Government officials were appointed by, and reported directly to, the Executive Yuan.

1972

Chiang kept Kao in his post as mayor until 1972 to avoid the ire of Taiwanese citizens.

Kao later agreed to join the Kuomintang and was appointed Minister of Transportation and Communications.

1976

He was named minister without portfolio in 1976 and presidential adviser in 1989.

1989

Kao remained a public servant for the rest of his life, as minister without portfolio until 1989, then presidential adviser until his death.

Kao studied engineering at Waseda University in Japan.

1996

Upon ending his independent candidacy for president in January 1996, Kao returned to an advisory role and served until his death in 2005.

1999

In 1999, he was the 55th person and first Taiwanese to receive an honorary doctorate from Waseda University.
