Among political office holders taking up a higher appointment is Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs K. Shanmugam, who will take on the additional role of Senior Minister on July 27.The 67-year-old, who entered politics 38 years ago in 1988, became a minister in 2008. You would be forgiven for wondering if there was an editorial error in saying that the coordinating minister is taking on an additional role. After all, the senior minister role in Singapore has historically been occupied by former prime ministers or deputy prime ministers.In addition, the appointee typically does not carry a ministerial portfolio as senior ministers are generally seen as elder statesmen who advice younger cabinet colleagues, and may also be asked to oversee councils. But the constant thread among the seven who have held the role, since it was created in 1985, is that they have all held the role of prime minister or deputy prime minister.The role was first held by S. Rajaratnam, who was Singapore's first post-independence foreign affairs minister and later deputy prime minister.
