Timeline
On 25 November 2016, the Prime Minister's Office announced Wong's appointment as Attorney-General. Wong would be Singapore's first Attorney-General without prior experience on the Bench nor in the Attorney-General's Chambers. Human rights lawyer Eugene Thuraisingam, who was later brought to Court by Wong, as Attorney-General, for scandalising the judiciary, said Wong’s lack of Bench and criminal law experience will have little bearing “because he is a top lawyer, one of the best”. He added: “He is a very highly regarded and respected lawyer who has been in practice for a very long time ... For criminal law, he will pick it up very fast. Generally, he has led one of Singapore’s most successful firms". Law Society president Thio Shen Yi described him as a "well-known corporate visionary" and Senior Counsel Lok Vi Ming said he had "few equals in the legal profession". Parliament also debated his age, as he would be 63 or three years older than the retiring V K Rajah when appointed; however, Law Minister K Shanmugam said that the appointment, being for a specified term, was "in accordance with Article 35 of the Constitution".
As a "transitional arrangement", Wong was appointed on 19 December 2016 as a Deputy Attorney-General and a Senior Counsel. On 14 January 2017, he commenced his three-year term as Singapore's ninth Attorney-General, succeeding V K Rajah. He was re-appointed for another three-year term commencing 14 January 2020.
Wong was called to the Singapore Bar in 1979. He started as a legal assistant in Drew & Napier in 1980, becoming a partner in 1982. He then moved to Allen & Gledhill, where he was a partner from 1987 to 1998, before being appointed managing partner from 1998 to 2012, then chairman and senior partner. As a corporate lawyer for over three decades, he specialised in banking, corporate and financial services law. He also sat on law review committees, reviewing amendments to Singaporean company and securities law. As the personal lawyer of Lee Hsien Loong, the Prime Minister of Singapore, Wong represented him during the dispute with his siblings over Lee Kuan Yew's estate.
Wong graduated from the University of Singapore (now the National University of Singapore) with a Bachelor of Laws in 1978. He topped his final-year class.
Lucien Wong Yuen Kuai SC (born 1953) is the incumbent Attorney-General of the Republic of Singapore and a former veteran corporate lawyer. Wong was formerly chairman and senior partner of Allen & Gledhill, and chairman of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore.
