Lin Yun-sheng

Lin Yun-sheng (Chinese: 林耘生; pinyin: Lín Yúnshēng; born 1972) is a Taiwanese politician who served in the Legislative Yuan from 2005 to 2008.

[1] A member of the Democratic Progressive Party, Lin was elected as a Nantou County representative to the Legislative Yuan in 2004.

He attempted to aid his father Lin Tsung-nan's 2005 run for the magistracy of Nantou County, stating that, in 2002, competing candidate Tsai Huang-liang had meddled in the affairs of the Taiwan Railways Administration.

[4][5] Lin sought to join the Legislative Yuan's Judiciary Committee, but was barred from doing so after the Democratic Progressive Party legislative caucus proposed a ban on committee membership for politicians whose family members were subject to current legal proceedings.

[6] The next year, Lin Yun-sheng supported an amendment to Article 1059 of the Civil Law that permitted people use their maternal surname with the permission of both parents.
