Tan Choo Leng () is a Singaporean lawyer and the wife of former Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong. Early life and career Tan graduated from the University of Singapore (now the National University of Singapore) with Bachelor of Laws degree. She is currently an advocate and solicitor for M/s Wong Partnership. Controversy She has given her support to many charities, and was best known for being a patron of the National Kidney Foundation (NKF). During the 2005 NKF scandal, she commented that the annual salary of S$600,000 drawn by NKF's chief executive officer T. T. Durai was considered "peanuts" as compared to the hundreds of millions of dollars managed by the NKF. Her remark was subsequently met with negative reactions from many Singaporeans. Tan stepped down as a patron after Durai and the NKF's board of directors resigned under public pressure on 14 July 2005. Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong later told the press that his wife regretted making that comment.
