Tang Fei (Chinese: 唐飛; pinyin: Táng Fēi; born 15 March 1932) is a Taiwanese politician and retired ROC Air Force general. He served as the prime minister of Taiwan from May 20 to October 2000, under the Chen Shui-bian government of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP). However, as a member of the Kuomintang (KMT), he did not agree with Chen and the DPP's policies and resigned five months after assuming the premiership.
