Biography

[edit]

As a physician, he was the first Governor of Macau who was not a military general.[3][4] He advocated humanism and social welfare during his term of office and visited Guangzhou as well as the entire Guangdong province from 22–24 February 1987.[5][6] He resigned from office in May 1987, giving rise to the rumour that his resignation was related to corruption.[7]
