SAF Chief of Staff Goh Pei Ming steps down ahead of GE2025

The brigadier-general confirmed with The Straits Times that March 31 was his last day with the Singapore Armed Forces, but did not comment on his next move or whether he will stand in the election.

Mr Goh, 42, also served concurrently as SAF inspector-general and chief sustainability officer.

His departure is the latest in a string of resignations from the public sector in recent weeks, which has fuelled talk that these senior officers will be fielded in the general election.
