Jiang Zemin Children: Meet Jiang Mianheng and Jiang Miankang

Jiang Zemin was a Chinese politician who served as the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) general secretary from 1989 to 2002.

Jiang Zemin  was the father of two adult children Jiang Mianheng and Jiang Miankang. Jiang Mianheng was born in 1951, and Jiang Miankang was born in 1956.

His older son Jiang Mianheng is a physicist and business executive. His youngest son Jiang Miankang was the deputy director and party chief of the Shanghai Free Trade Zone (FTZ),

Jiang Zemin unexpectedly came to power as a compromise candidate after the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, when he replaced Zhao Ziyang as CCP general secretary after Zhao was ousted for his support for the student movement.

Under Jiang’s leadership, China experienced significant economic growth, saw the return of Hong Kong from the United Kingdom in 1997 and Macau from Portugal in 1999, and improved its relations with the rest of the world, all while the Communist Party maintained tight control over the state.

Jiang became the PRC’s longest-living paramount leader on 14 February 2019, at the age of 96 years and 105 days, surpassing Deng Xiaoping.

Jiang Zemin died of leukemia and multiple organ failure on November 30, 2022.
