Hsieh Fu Hua replaces Peter Seah as National Wages Council chairman

Seah has served as NWC chairman since 2015, while Hsieh has been deputy chairman since Aug 7

Peter Seah, the National Wages Council (NWC) chairman since 2015, is stepping down for "personal reasons," according to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM). Seah has been deputy chairman of the NWC since August 7. Hsieh Fu Hua, who was appointed deputy chairman just 12 days ago, will replace Seah as chairman with immediate effect. Hsieh brings a wealth of experience from the business, social, and public sectors to the role.

He is currently the chairman of the National University of Singapore board of trustees and a director on the GIC board. Hsieh's leadership in bringing together diverse stakeholders and building consensus will be valuable in leading the NWC's upcoming tripartite deliberations on wage issues.
