WHO I AM ?
I AM CHIANG WEI-KUO (OR WEGO CHIANG) ADOPTIVE SON OF PRESIDENT CHIANG KAI-SEK
I was born in Tokyo on October 6, 1916 when Chiang Kai-shek and the KMT was exiled to Japan by the Beiyang Government. I have long been speculated to be an offspring of Tai Chi-tao and a Japanese woman, Shigematsu Kaneko. According to popular gossip, Tai believed knowledge of his Japanese tryst would destroy his marriage and his career. Yao Yecheng , Chiang's wife at the time, raised me as her own and I called Tai my "Dear Uncle" While I previously discredited any such claims and insisted I was a legitimate son of Chiang Kai-shek until my later years(1988), when I admitted that I was adopted by President Chiang Kai-shek.
I studied at Soochow University, then Chiang sent me to Germany for a military education at the Munich Military Academy. I completed specialized Alpine warfare training, thus earning the coveted Gebirgsjäger (The elite Wehrmacht Mountain Troop) Edelweiss sleeve insignia. I was promoted to Unteroffizier,also known as Fahnenjunker, or Officer Candidate (see picture)
I commanded a Panzer during the 1938 Austrian Anschluss, leading a tank into that country; subsequently, I was promoted to Lieutenant of a Panzer unit awaiting to be sent into Poland. Before I was given the mobilization order, I was recalled to China.
There, I became a Major at 28, a Lieutenant Colonel at 29, a Colonel at 32, and later, a Major General. I was in charge of a M4 Sherman tank battalion during 1948 Nationalist-Communist campaign against Deng Xiaoping's troops, scoring some early victories. In 1949 I moved my armor regiment to Taiwan.
In 1957, after my first wife died, I re-married, to Chiu Ju-hsüeh , also known as Chiu Ai-lun, a daughter of Chinese and German parents. Chiu gave birth to my only son.
After my half brother Chiang Ching-kuo's death, I was a political rival of native Taiwanese Lee Teng-hui, and I strongly opposed Lee's Taiwan localization movement. I ran as vice-president with Taiwan Governor Lin Yang-kang in the 1990 presidential election, but we lost.
I had very bad relation with Chiang Kai-shek second wife and widow Soong May-ling
I died on September 22, 1997)at the age of 82 from kidney failure.

26 October 2008
I AM JOSHUA BENJAMIN JEYARETNAM, OLDEST OPPOSITION LEADER IN SINGAPORE
Here is the explanation given by Limsing1958
I am Joshua Benjamin Jeyaretnam, born January 5, 1926 in Jaffna, Ceylon, now Sri Lanka. I was trained as a lawyer in the University College London, England before making Singapore my permanent home.
I was the leader of the Worker's Party of Singapore and in 1981 I won the Anson Parliamentary seat, thus breaking the People's Action Party's monopoly on power to become Singapore's first opposition MP. I won the same seat again in 1984.
I was a severe critic of the one-party state system of Singapore and became a thorn in the side of Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew. My quixotic efforts to effect political and social change in Singapore have even earned me the title "the Grand Old Man of opposition politics".
To get rid of me the PAP successfully brought me down through a series of politically-motivated legal charges. In 1986, I was expelled from the legislature until 1991 and disbarred from legal practice. By 2000 I was declared bankrupt when I failed to keep up payments in a series of libel cases, such as the charges of having defamed prime minister Goh Chok-tong and ten other members of the PAP

WHO I AM ?
I AM GAO XINGJIAN, FIRST AND ONLY ONE CHINESE NOBEL PRIZE FOR LITERATURE
Born on January 4, 1940, my mother was an amateur actress who stimulated my interest in the theatre and writing. I got a degree in French in 1962. During the Cultural Revolution (1966-76) I was sent to a re-education camp and felt it necessary to burn a suitcase full of manuscripts. Not until 1979 could I publish my work and travel abroad, to France and Italy as a painter
During the period 1980-87 I published short stories, essays and dramas in literary magazines in China and also four books which gave rise to a violent polemic on "modernism" particulary In Search of a Modern Form of Dramatic Representation (1987).
Several of my experimental and pioneering plays - inspired in part by Brecht, Artaud and Beckett - were produced at the Theatre of Popular Art in Beijing. My theatrical debut with Signal Alarm (1982) was a tempestuous success, and the absurd drama which established my Bus Stop (1983) was condemned during the campaign against "intellectual pollution". Wild Man (1985) also gave rise to heated domestic polemic and international attention
In 1986, The Other Shore was banned and since then none of my plays have been performed in China. To avoid harassment I left China and settled down in Paris 1988. After publication of Fugitives, which takes place against the background of the massacre of Tiananmen Square, I was declared persona non grata by the regime and my works were banned. I got French citizenship in 1998 where I write in French and Chinese while painting a lot. My main novel is Soul Mountain, completed in 1989
I'm not involved in politics, but that does not prevent me from criticizing the policies of Communist China. I say what I want to say. If I have chosen to live in exile, it is to be able to express myself freely without constraint
The Chinese communist authorities always complained that never a Chinese author has been selected for Nobel Prize in literature. When I got it in 2000 they were furious. After the decision of the Nobel committee China's Foreign Ministry called the award a political maneuver the nation took no pride in

WHO I AM ?
I AM MYEONGSEONG, THE LAST QUEEN OF KOREA
Born under the name of Min on October 19, 1851, the daughter of Min Ch'irok, a government official, I was made the royal consort in 1866 at the urging of Lady Min, consort of Hungsn Taewngun and mother of King Kojong. I became the first official wife of King Gojong.
My resentment and hatred was soon directed mostly at Taewongun, who exercised governmental powers as the regent. I concentrated on having members of the Min family appointed to key financial, personnel, and military positions of the Korean government to oppose the rule of the regent. As the many political blunders of the regent Taewngun became evident, I helped King Kojong inaugurate his personal rule. Followers of Taewngun were summarily removed from power positions
The Japanese considered me as an obstacle against its overseas expansion. Efforts to remove me from the political arena, orchestrated through failed rebellions prompted by my father-in-law Heungseon Daewongun (an influential regent working with the Japanese), compelled me to take a harsher stand against Japanese influence.
After Japan's victory in the First Sino-Japanese War, I advocated stronger ties between Korea and Russia in an attempt to block Japanese influence in Korea. Miura Goro, the Japanese Minister to Korea backed the faction headed by my father-in-law Daewongun, whom he considered to be more sympathetic to Japanese interests.
At about 5:30 of October 8, 1895, a group of Japanese military and people in Japanese attires infiltrated the Gyeongbok Palace with little difficulty because the Palace was under Japanese protection. They killed the commander of a guard unit, and his men, who blocked the entrance to the palace.
King Kojong bitterly protested the Japanese intrusion into his private quarters but he was pushed down by the Japanese. Another group of the assassins rushed to my sleeping area. I was sexually molested then killed. The assassins wrapped me in a blanket then burned my body in a nearby bush.

WHO I AM ?
I AM DIPA NUSANTARA AIDIT (1923-1965), LEADER OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDONESIA (PKI)
Im am Dipa Nusantara Aidit, born under the name of Ahmad Aidit on July 1923 on Bangka Island. I was nicknamed Bang Amat by his little brothers,
I was raised on Dutch colonial education, later coming into contact with Marxist political theory through the Indies Social Democratic Association, later the Communist Party of Indonesia. In 1945, I served as one of the brief, bloody war for independance
Though a Marxist and a member of Comintern, I submitted to Indonesian president Sukarno's Marhaenism policy and allow the party to grow without any overt intentions towards power. In return for my support of Sukarno, I rose to the position of Secretary-General of the PKI in 1951
Under my leadership, the PKI became the 3rd largest Communist party in the world, behind those of the Soviet Union and China. I set up a number of mass organizations including the Pemuda Rakyat for the youth, and Gerwani a women's league
During the 1955 general election campaign, the PKI drew a large following. In the next decade, it became a leftist rival to conservative elements among the Muslim political parties and the Army. In 1963, the PKI began a unilateral action of land reforms in which villagers seized land belonging to upper classes By 1965, the PKI had become the largest political party in Indonesia with an estimated 20 million members, and I became bolder in overtures towards power
After the attempted 30 September 1965 coup (Gestapu) later officially blamed on the PKI, I fled to Yogyakarta, where he was arrested and shot on 22 November by pro-government forces led by General Suharto
