Role in the Community

  • Houston Taiwanese community organizer: served on the founding preparatory committee of the Houston Taiwanese Activity Center (休士頓台灣人活動中心) as co-head of the fundraising group (募款組) with 李席舟、林明德、莊峻華、王敦正, per 莊承業’s memoir 2016. Donated $10,000+ to the center’s building fund.
  • Bought 謝里法’s oil painting at a benefit sale (with 李席舟、李雅彥) on 1980s fundraising event; proceeds split with the 台灣會館 (same memoir).
  • Blacklisted by the KMT at one point (rumored name-confusion with a lookalike brother’s name, or his chamber-presidency); entry was restored after 張士丞 and others intervened — recorded in the blacklist roster in 02.
  • Community offices per corpus: 前任昌會會長 and 現任北美商會會長; profiled in 2016.
  • HOLD: TAH press-kit profile lists only chem-industry roles; corpus memoirs add movement/organizing roles — both retained.
  • Disambiguation: the corpus records a second「C. C. Yang」— 楊宗昌 of the Kansas campus circle, a distinct person (all the「C. C. Yang from Kansas」references at the 1965 麥迪遜結盟大會 and the 1966 UFAI founding in 81 (English memoir) and the Feb 13 attendance roster naming 「Tsung-chang Yang (C.C. Yang)」 in 65-eng are 楊宗昌, not 楊朝諄): see 05. Do not merge.
  • HOLD: a「C. C. Yang」appears in the signatory roster of the Pew-recorded Taiwanese American community statement (Pew Research: Taiwanese American statement), listed next to Sandy Chou (Taiwanese Association of greater Seattle). The corpus does not state which C. C. Yang (楊朝諄 vs 楊宗昌) signed — do not attribute without evidence.

Family

HOLD: brother(s) with a near-identical name mentioned in blacklist lore (黑名單); possibly 楊朝諭 but corpus does not state it explicitly — do not merge.
