Cheng Nan-jung
Cheng Nan-jung (; from time to time an anglicised name is used: Nylon Deng; September 12, 1947 in Taipei – April 7, 1989) was a Taiwanese publisher and pro-democracy activist. He was the founder of the Freedom Era Weekly. He is most known internationally for setting himself on fire in support of Freedom of Speech.
==Background and career==
Deng's father was an immigrant from Fuzhou, Fujian. His mother was from Keelung, Taiwan. Deng was born in the year of the February 28 Incident. On his first job-seeking résumé, Deng Nan-jung was to write: "I was born the year of the February 28 Incident, and this incident has tormented me throughout my life.... Only because we were protected by our neighbors were we mainlanders safe from the wave of retaliation from the Taiwanese." He wrote that his experience growing up in the White Terror drove his commitment to Taiwan independence.
Deng studied engineering at Taiwan Provincial Cheng Kung University, and philosophy at Fu Jen Catholic University and National Taiwan University. He refused to take the classes on Sun Yat-sen Thought, and handed back his National Taiwan University graduation certificate.
In March 1984, he founded Freedom Era Weekly and declared that "(was ) fighting for 100 percent freedom of speech." Deng Nan-jung had registered 18 different magazine licenses, as "spare tires" for use when the KMT banned the magazine and suspended publication. He said "I'm not scared of arrest nor of being killed, basically, I'll fight them to the very end." The magazine was banned several times by the authorities but continued to be printed and distributed.
