Lin Chuan (Chinese: 林全; pinyin: Lín Quán) is a Taiwanese politician. He served as the Minister of the Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics of the Executive Yuan from 2000 to 2002 and Minister of Finance from 2002 to 2006.[1][2]
Following Tsai Ing-wen's victory in the 2016 presidential election Lin was selected as a co-convener of Tsai's transition team set up to manage the transfer of power from the outgoing Ma Ying-jeou administration.[3] Since his appointment to the transition team, Lin has been the subject of national media speculation linking him to several government posts within the Tsai administration.[4][5]
