Ng Chee Meng PJG PPA(E) PPA(G) PBS (Chinese: 黄志明; pinyin: Huáng Zhìmíng; born 8 August 1968)[1] is a Singaporean politician, union leader and former lieutenant-general who is a member of the governing People's Action Party (PAP) and has been serving as Secretary-General of the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) since 2018.

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, holding the rank Lieutenant-General. He left the Singapore Armed Forces in order to contest the 2015 general election.

He made his political debut in the 2015 general election as part of a five-member PAP team contesting in Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC and won. He represented the Punggol North division of Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC between 2015 and 2020, and served as Minister for Education (Schools) between 2015 and 2018, and Minister in the Prime Minister's Office between 2018 and 2020.

However, during the 2020 general election, he led a four-member PAP team contesting in Sengkang GRC and lost to the opposition Workers' Party team, which won 52.12% of the vote.[2][3] He remained the Secretary-General of NTUC, and was co-opted into the PAP's Central Executive Committee (CEC) in 2020.
