Land Transport Authority to get new chairman

Singapore's Land Transport Authority (LTA) will appoint a new chairman on September 1, 2026. Former Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) Pang Kin Keong will take over from Alan Chan, who has been in the role for over a decade. Pang, who has dedicated 35 years to public service, will hold the position for three years.

He has been a member of the LTA board since April 1, 2026. Pang's appointment comes as the LTA advances Singapore's land transport priorities of building an efficient, sustainable, and people-centric system. During his tenure, Chan played a crucial role in shaping Singapore's land transport system, overseeing the completion of the Downtown Line and Circle Line, and progressing projects like the Thomson-East Coast Line.

The LTA will welcome four new board members and bid farewell to five outgoing members on September 1.
