Mei Ling (voiced by Kim Mai Guest and Houko Kuwashima) is the data analyst in charge of saving the player's mission data in Metal Gear Solid. She is the one who invented Snake's wireless communication equipment, the Codec, as well the Soliton Radar, which detects the positions and field of vision of nearby enemy soldiers. Every time Snake saves his data, Mei Ling provides him with advice through Chinese proverbs (as well as quotations from Western authors).
