Whether he will qualify for the presidential race, however, remains uncertain as he may need to apply under the private or public sector deliberative track

SINGAPORE: Former GIC Chief Investment Officer Ng Kok Song collected eligibility application forms at the Elections Department this morning at around 10:30 am, making his interest in running for President clear. The 75-year-old had recently expressed his consideration of running for the presidency, citing the issue’s national importance and personal implications.

Interested candidates for the presidency have been able to collect application forms from the Elections Department or its website since June 13. He serves on PIMCO’s Global Advisory board alongside notable figures such as former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and former US Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke.

It is unclear if Mr Ng qualifies as the most senior executive at Avanda, and as the company does not meet the $500 million shareholder equity requirement. Additionally, Mr Ng’s public service contributions do not align with the specified list of eligible roles for the presidency.
