Mei Ying Yie ([měi̯ jɪ̀ŋ ɥɤ̂]; Huajiang: 美影月; Huayi: Měi Yǐng Yuè; born May 28, 1945) is an ethnic Qi and an Independent Huajiang politician, legal scholar, linguist and prosecutor currently serving as the President of Independent Huajiang since October 11, 2012. The second woman to be the President, after Cai Xiangning[1], Mei is the sixth president of Independent Huajiang under the Constitution of Independent Huajiang. Previously, Mei served as the Chief Prosecutor of the Yakeshi District in from 1996 to 2002 under Sükhbaatar and afterwards, the Mayor of Gao'an under Independent Huajiang in 2003 to 2006.[2] Mei then became a candidate for succeeding the newly elected Qiao Jiabao, and afterwards succeeded him after his resignation in 2012.
Mei was born in Yakeshi in 1945 to Wu Rong and Mei Ying. Her family was known in Yakeshi for their performances of Sibuxiji, with Wu Rong being a Bianzhi performer and Ma Ying being a Dongwu performer. After the outbreak of the Great Yemugh War and the proclamation of Independent Huajiang, would move to Gao'an in 1952, after the outbreak of the Great Yemugh War. Mei moved to the Leidense Republic and enrolled in the law program at the Leidense National University, and later moved back to Sükhbaatar in 1971, during the Byambasüren-Yanjmaan Period. After the Speech of Dust, Mei entered the law field, moving back to Yakeshi and becoming a prosecutor for the state. Mei had been intrigued by Independent Huajiang, which at this point was a breakaway state that encompassed the entirety of South Huajiang. In 1996, she was appointed by the Mayor of Yakeshi, Bo Gu, to be the Chief Prosecutor of the Yakeshi District after her work on the Jiandi Case. In 2002, she was elected the Mayor of the Yakeshi District and took her position in 2003. However later in the same year, she resigned her post and defected to Independent Huajiang, where she took an offer for becoming the Mayor of Gao'an.
Mei is a self-described "conservative", with her political positions varying between issue to issue. Political commentators have described her as, overall centrist with some right-wing tendencies. Her reforms on social issues have been seen as polarizing from her right-wing policies, and have been seen as left-wing. Her economic policies, known as Meinomics, have focused on Structural adjustment and fixing the Unemployment problem. Mei is also considered a nationalist with her views on international politics and is considered a hard-liner on transgressions against Huajiang, and despite their observership in the Compact for Mutual Assistance and General Cooperation, Mei has considered that their full membership may not be required in the near future. Mei also holds what is considered anti-imperialist views, and announced that Independent Huajiang would recognize Nanto as the sole sovereign country within Chishima in the Chishima Issue.
Now considered one of the biggest faces in Yidaoan politics and the central figure around the Independent Huajiang Sovereignty, she has centralized the institutional power within Independent Huajiang and consolidated her government's power by forming the Independent Security Committee to consolidate her party's power. Despite her initial promise to institute democratic reforms, she has confirmed in several press conferences that it is not within her scope and believe it will not happen before the end of her term.
