*''Japanese/Chinese'': [[王]] 茂 ''(Ou Mo / Wáng Mào)''
Ô Mo, or Wang Mao, was a scholar-official of Chinese origin who served the [[Ryukyu Kingdom|Ryukyuan]] Court for many years.
Along with figures such as [[Lin You]]<!--林佑--> and [[Kaiki]] (C: ''Huaiji''), he was one of a number of Chinese-born officials in Ryûkyû who received formal court robes from the [[Ming Dynasty|Ming]] Court, honorarily recognizing him as a member of the ranks of the Ming bureaucracy.<ref>Tomiyama Kazuyuki, ''Ryûkyû ôkoku no gaikô to ôken'', Yoshikawa Kôbunkan (2004), 44.</ref>
Later, in [[1411]], he was elevated to the position of Prime Minister (国相), and simultaneously to the post of ''changshi'' of the Right (右長史), with the approval of the Ming court.<ref>Tomiyama, 47.</ref>
