Goh Chok Tong

Goh Chok Tong ( born 20 May 1941) is a retired Singaporean politician who served as Prime Minister of Singapore between 1990 and 2004, and secretary-general of the People's Action Party between 1992 and 2004. Prior to his appointment as prime minister, Goh served as the minister for trade and industry, health, and defence under Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. He was a Member of Parliament (MP) for 44 years, representing Marine Parade SMC for 12 years and Marine Parade GRC for the next 32 years.

Under his leadership, the party maintained its continuous rule on Singapore from the 1991 general election to the 2001 general election. Goh's tenure was marked by the 1997 Asian financial crisis and 2003 SARS outbreak. He was succeeded by Lee Hsien Loong on 12 August 2004 and subsequently appointed as a senior minister and chairman of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) between 2004 and 2011.

Goh retired from politics and stepped down as a Member of Parliament (MP) in 2020 as part of a leadership transition. He is the only living former prime minister and holds the honorary title of "Emeritus Senior Minister".
