But his belief in an independent Taiwan never waned. This is the incredible life story of a skinny boy from Taiwan's countryside who became an American business leader and democracy advocate for Taiwan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough hard work and perseverance, Wu became nationally recognized as a leader in the banking industry starting in Alaska and then Southern California. His business acumen led him to become a bank turnaround expert and CEO. Wu received many accolades from his financial peers and was the subject of numerous cover stories in industry journals. In addition, he formed multiple non-profit, non-partisan public interest groups that sought to promote Taiwanese identity and foster an environment of peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
