We have three PMs this week. Lim Hng Kiang is our PM today.

This week's PM: PM Lee Hsien Loong (Mon-Fri); Min Lim Hng Kiang (Sat); DPM Teo Chee Hean (Sun).

Lim Hng Kiang?

Yes, he is the acting PM today.

You have not heard of Trade and Industry Minister Lim because…

He doesn’t have more than 794,000 FB fans like PM Lee Hsien Loong,

Or manage police matters like DPM Teo Chee Hean,

Or sucker punch BBC anchor like DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam.

Nope. He has no Facebook page or Twitter account.

But it's all cool because Minister Lim was the boss of our country before.

He was Acting PM on Sep. 12 and 13 last year.

He was a President's Scholar in 1973, just like DPM Teo and former Foreign Minister George Yeo.

So why is Lim acting PM?

The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) announced that PM Lee Hsien Loong will be on leave from today to Jun 21.

In case no one is reading the newspapers or watching the news nowadays, he also informed his FB fans.

Which is probably more effective.

During his absence, DPM Teo will take over Acting PM Lim tomorrow and be the Acting PM from Jun 14 to 21.

Anyway, our question is…

Will Acting PM Lim attend PinkDotSG today on PM Lee's behalf?
