Ma Liang (traditional Chinese: 馬良; simplified Chinese: 马良; pinyin: Mǎ Liáng)^[1] was a Chinese Muslim General and a member of the Ma Clique.

Prominent Muslims like Ma Liang, Ma Fuxiang and Bai Chongxi met in 1931 in Nanjing to discuss inter communal tolerance between Hui and Han.^[2]

He was related to former Governor Ma Bufang of Qinghai, and he had 2,000 Chinese Muslim troops under his command around Gansu/Qinghai during the Kuomintang Islamic Insurgency in China (1950–1958). Chiang Kai-shek sent agents in May 1952 to communicate with him, and Chiang offered him the post of Commander-in-chief of the 103rd Route of the Kuomintang army, which was accepted by Ma. The CIA dropped supplies such as ammunition, radios, and gold at Nagchuka to Ma Liang.^[3] Ma Yuanxiang was another Chinese Muslim General related to the Ma family.^[4] Ma Yuanxiang and Ma Liang wreaked havoc on the Communist forces. In 1953, Mao Zedong was compelled to take radical action against them.^[5]
