Political career
Wang joined the Kuomintang in 1965, and left for the People First Party shortly after its establishment in 2000. As a legislator, he maintained an interest in the military and defense. Wang did not receive a legislative nomination from the People First Party in 2001, and launched an independent campaign to represent Kaohsiung's first district. In November 2001, Wang was one of four legislative candidates indicted on charges of vote buying. Of those four candidates, Wang, Hsiao-Chin-lan, and Chuan Wen-sheng lost, while Hsu Chih-ming retained his seat. After stepping down from the legislature, Wang returned to the Kuomintang.
