Chan I-hua (traditional Chinese: 詹益樺; simplified Chinese: 詹益桦; pinyin: Zhān Yìhuà) was a Taiwanese pro-democracy activist. He performed self-immolation on May 19, 1989 when the funeral procession of fellow activist Cheng Nan-jung (who had similarly immolated himself) was blocked by the police in front of the Presidential Office Building in Taipei.
