Ng Chee Meng (born 8 August 1968) is a Singaporean politician, union leader and former lieutenant-general. A member of the governing People's Action Party (PAP), he has been the secretary-general of the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) since 2018 and the Member of Parliament (MP) for Jalan Kayu Single Member Constituency (SMC) since 2025. He was an MP for Pasir Ris–Punggol Group Representation Constituency (GRC) between 2015 and 2020. Prior to entering politics, Ng served in the Republic of Singapore Air Force under the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) between 1986 and 2015, and held the appointments of Chief of Air Force between 2009 and 2013 and Chief of Defence Force between 2013 and 2015. He joined politics in 2015 and left the SAF to contest the 2015 general election. During his first stint as an MP, Ng served as Minister for Education (Schools) between 2015 and 2018 and Minister in the Prime Minister's Office between 2018 and 2020. In the 2020 general election, he led the PAP team for Sengkang GRC, which lost to the opposition Workers' Party (WP). In 2020, Ng was co-opted into the PAP's Central Executive Committee (CEC) despite losing his MP seat that year. During his time outside of political office, he remained the Secretary-General of NTUC and was a key proponent of a deal between Income Insurance and Allianz, which was ultimately called off amid intense public backlash. Ng made a political comeback in the 2025 general election, winning the newly formed Jalan Kayu SMC by only 809 votes against WP candidate Andre Low. On 22 July 2026, Ng was appointed, effective 27 July, to the Cabinet as a Minister in the Prime Minister's Office.
