He has also held directorship positions on the boards of several government agencies, including the Housing Development Board and the Tote Board, said MTI.
Mr Koh was awarded the Public Service Star last year for his contributions to Singapore’s national development.
“At present, he is a member of the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Financial Centre Advisory Panel, the Securities Industry Council, University of Toronto’s International Leadership Council for Asia and the Asian Bureau of Finance and Economic Research,” it added.
MTI expressed thanks to Mr Tan for his contributions, commending how he led the organisation through the COVID-19 pandemic, while positioning Sentosa for sustainable growth and development.
