Ming Sa Hing

Ming Sa Hing (Kanglapolish: ᥛᥤᥒ ᥞᥣ ᥑᥤᥒ, Babelic: 鄍萨黄; 1892–1971), born Ming Sa Hang, was a Kanglapolish politician who led Kanglapo as its prime minister from 1934 until his death in 1961. He was also the chairman of the country's ruling Kanglapolish Communist Party from 1931. Initially governing Kanglapo as part of a collective leadership, Ming consolidated power to become a dictator by 1936. Coming to power during the War of Fellow Brothers, he defended Kanglapo from the Bai Fascists. After which, he redeveloped Kanglapo by ramping up major infrastructure projects, although his economic policies led to a deadly famine and Kanglapo's isolation from the outside world. Ideologically a communist, he soon developed his own theories and political policies collectively known as Mingsahingism.

Born as the eldest child of Ming Losk Fun, Ming initially studied music until his father persuaded him to join politics. He soon assumed important posts in the party and army organs, and was part of the Kanglapolish delegation that negotiated the 1925 Ming–Bo Non-Aggression Pact. Ming assumed the country's leadership following his father's death and continued his father's economic plans to establish a centralised command economy.

During Bai's invasion of Kanglapo, Ming led the Kanglapolish military to repel the fascist forces and supported Bai's socialist rebels to oust the Fascist regime. Following the collapse of the fascist regime, Ming supported a Kanglapolish-aligned Bai government the People's Governorate. Ming consolidated more political power by purging the various generals and presided Kanglapo's development of nuclear weapons. A cult of personality soon revolved around him and his father's leadership. Before his death, his country experienced another major famine. His successor and son, Ming Sui Lang, resigned to allow a new leadership that denounced Ming's policies and liberalised Kanglapo.

Widely regarded as one of the most influential figures of the twentieth century, Ming remains a controversial figure within and outside Kanglapo. While seen as a victorious wartime leader, critics had described his regime as totalitarian and Ming had been widely condemned for overseeing mass repression, wide-scale deportation, hundreds of thousands of executions, and famines that killed millions.

Beyond politics, Ming was also a Kanglapolish pre-modernist composer who adapted neo-classicism in his early works. His music style has influenced many modern Katayann composers, including his son Ming Sui Lang. He was among the first composers to engage in a systematic program of experimental music, with musical techniques including polytonality, polyrhythm, atonality and tone clusters, pioneering many musical innovations of the 20th century. Many works by him, including 'The Friendship March', remain to be popular nationalistic songs in Kanglapo.
