Source-derived summary

Liang Tiangeng (Chinese: 梁田庚; pinyin: Liáng Tiángēng; born May 1960) is a Chinese politician currently serving as vice chairman of the Hebei Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

He was an alternate of the 19th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.

Biography

Liang was born in Dianbai County (now Dianbai District), Guangdong, in May 1960. He was a sent-down youth between September 1976 and September 1979. After resuming the college entrance examination, in 1979, he entered South China Agricultural University, majoring in agricultural economic management. Upon graduation in April 1983, he joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

After university in 1983, Liang was assigned to the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries (later was reshuffled as the Ministry of Agriculture). He stayed there for 25 long years, interspersed with short stays in the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party from April 1995 to January 1998 and the Guizhou Provincial Economic System Reform Commission from January 1998 and May 1999.

Liang was appointed head of the Organization Department of the CCP Tibetan Autonomous Regional Committee in March 2012 and was admitted to member of the Standing Committee of the CCP Tibetan Autonomous Regional Committee, the region's top authority.

Liang was assigned to the similar position in north China's Hebei province in December 2014.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Liang Tiangeng” is chinese politician. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Liang, Tiangeng and Chinese, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1960, 1976, 1979, 1983—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1960-01-01. For this dossier, Liang, Tiangeng and Chinese is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “chinese politician” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 26, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q8999290. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1960, 1976, 1979 and 1983.

Critical limits

Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
