新加坡布政司 Chief Secretary, Singapore وزير أول بسنغافورة
rdfs:comment
The chief secretary of Singapore, known as the colonial secretary of Singapore before 1955, and the colonial secretary of the Straits Settlements before 1946, was a high ranking government official position in the Straits Settlements before 1946 and the Colony of Singapore after 1946, between 1867 and 1959. It was second only to the governor of Singapore, formerly the governor of the Straits Settlements in the colonial government. 新加坡布政司（英語：Chief Secretary, Singapore），1946年至1955年間稱為新加坡輔政司（Colonial Secretary, Singapore），沿襲自1867年創置的海峽殖民地輔政司（Colonial Secretary, Straits Settlements），是新加坡殖民地及其前身海峽殖民地在英國管治時期下所設置的公務員官職，地位僅次於海峽殖民地總督和後來的新加坡總督。 海峽殖民地輔政司一職因當地在1867年成為皇家殖民地而設立，以取代原有的新加坡參政司，在二戰期間，輔政司一度因為新加坡和馬來亞全境為日本攻佔而懸空。重光後的1946年，新加坡脫離檳城和馬六甲自立為皇家殖民地，原有的海峽殖民地輔政司遂更名為新加坡輔政司，到1955年再因為實施《》而改名為新加坡布政司。在1959年，新加坡取得自治，具92年歷史的布政司一職終被裁撤。 布政司及其前身輔政司均是殖民地內地位最高的文官之一，也是布政司辦公室（舊稱輔政司辦公室）的首長，自1867年至1955年間更一直是兩局當然官守議員，同時負責掌管輔政司署。即使是新加坡在1955年實施新憲法後，布政司仍繼續擔任部長會議和立法議會的當然官守議員。歷任輔政司和布政司主要以新加坡的皇后坊大廈為辦公地點，並以總督府旁的斯里淡馬錫作為官邸。 الوزير الأول، بسنغافورة (بالإنجليزية: Chief Secretary, Singapore)، ويُعرف باسم وزير المستعمرات بسنغافورة منذ عام 1946 وحتى 1955، هو واحد من أرفع المناصب الحكومية المدنية في مستعمرة سنغافورة. وقد تطور هذا المنصب من سابقه، وزير المستعمرات، مستوطنات سترايتس، ولم يكن هناك منصب يسبقه سوى حاكم سنغافورة، والمعروف سابقًا باسم حاكم مستوطنات سترايتس.

The chief secretary of Singapore, known as the colonial secretary of Singapore before 1955, and the colonial secretary of the Straits Settlements before 1946, was a high ranking government official position in the Straits Settlements before 1946 and the Colony of Singapore after 1946, between 1867 and 1959. It was second only to the governor of Singapore, formerly the governor of the Straits Settlements in the colonial government. The Straits Settlements, which mainly comprised Singapore, Penang and Malacca, became a Crown colony in 1867. The position of Colonial Secretary was subsequently created with a view to replacing Resident Councillor in Singapore. During the Japanese occupation of Singapore, the position was vacant and suspended following the downfall of the Malay Peninsula into the hands of the Japanese Empire. In 1946, Singapore parted from Penang and Malacca, forming itself into a Crown colony, so the jurisdiction of Colonial Secretary was reduced to Singapore only. The title "Colonial Secretary" was later changed to "Chief Secretary" in 1955 when the Crown colony adopted the Rendel Constitution. Having been in existence for 92 years, the position was abolished in 1959 after Singapore attained self-governance. Being the head of the Colonial Secretary's Office, the colonial secretary was an ex-officio member of both the Executive and Legislative Council, and at the same time the head of the Colonial Secretariat between 1867 and 1955. When Singapore adopted its new constitution in 1955, although the Colonial Secretariat was abolished, the chief secretary remained an ex-officio member of the Council of Ministers and the Legislative Assembly. The workplace of Chief Secretary was located at Empress Place Building while Sri Temasek, which was next to the Government House, was the official residence of the chief secretary. 新加坡布政司（英語：Chief Secretary, Singapore），1946年至1955年間稱為新加坡輔政司（Colonial Secretary, Singapore），沿襲自1867年創置的海峽殖民地輔政司（Colonial Secretary, Straits Settlements），是新加坡殖民地及其前身海峽殖民地在英國管治時期下所設置的公務員官職，地位僅次於海峽殖民地總督和後來的新加坡總督。 海峽殖民地輔政司一職因當地在1867年成為皇家殖民地而設立，以取代原有的新加坡參政司，在二戰期間，輔政司一度因為新加坡和馬來亞全境為日本攻佔而懸空。重光後的1946年，新加坡脫離檳城和馬六甲自立為皇家殖民地，原有的海峽殖民地輔政司遂更名為新加坡輔政司，到1955年再因為實施《》而改名為新加坡布政司。在1959年，新加坡取得自治，具92年歷史的布政司一職終被裁撤。 布政司及其前身輔政司均是殖民地內地位最高的文官之一，也是布政司辦公室（舊稱輔政司辦公室）的首長，自1867年至1955年間更一直是兩局當然官守議員，同時負責掌管輔政司署。即使是新加坡在1955年實施新憲法後，布政司仍繼續擔任部長會議和立法議會的當然官守議員。歷任輔政司和布政司主要以新加坡的皇后坊大廈為辦公地點，並以總督府旁的斯里淡馬錫作為官邸。 الوزير الأول، بسنغافورة (بالإنجليزية: Chief Secretary, Singapore)، ويُعرف باسم وزير المستعمرات بسنغافورة منذ عام 1946 وحتى 1955، هو واحد من أرفع المناصب الحكومية المدنية في مستعمرة سنغافورة. وقد تطور هذا المنصب من سابقه، وزير المستعمرات، مستوطنات سترايتس، ولم يكن هناك منصب يسبقه سوى حاكم سنغافورة، والمعروف سابقًا باسم حاكم مستوطنات سترايتس. وتم إنشاء منصب وزير المستعمرات (CS) في الأصل من أجل مستوطنات سترايتس (SS) عام 1867، وذلك بهدف استبدال المستشار المقيم لسنغافورة، عندما أصبحت مستوطنات سترايتس، والتي تتألف بشكل أساسي من سنغافورة وبينانج وملاكا، مستعمرة التاج. وأثناء الحرب العالمية الثانية، كان المنصب شاغرًا ومعلقًا في أعقاب سقوط شبه جزيرة ملايو في أيدي الغزاة اليابانيين. وبعد الحرب، وفي عام 1946، انفصلت سنغافورة عن بينانج وملاكا، وأعلنت نفسها مستعمرة للتاج، لذلك تم حصر اختصاص وزير المستعمرات على سنغافورة فقط. بعد ذلك، تغير الاسم «وزير المستعمرات» فيما بعد إلى «الوزير الأول» في عام 1955، وذلك عندما اعتمدت مستعمرة التاج دستور رندل. وبعد استمرار المنصب لمدة 92 عامًا، ألغي أخيرًا عام 1959 مع إدخال الحكم الذاتي الداخلي لسنغافورة. وبصفته رئيسًا لمكتب وزير المستعمرات، كان وزير المستعمرات عضوًا بحكم منصبه في كل من المجلس التنفيذي والتشريعي، وفي نفس الوقت رئيس أمانة المستعمرات منذ عام 1867 حتى 1955. وعندما اعتمدت سنغافورة دستورها الجديد عام 1955، وعلى الرغم من إلغاء أمانة المستعمرات، ظل وزير المستعمرات بحكم منصبه عضوًا في مجلس الوزراء والمجلس التشريعي. وكان مقر عمل وزير المستعمرات يقع في مبنى قصر إمبريس، بينما كان سري تيماسك، الذي كان بجوار دار الحكومة (إستانا)، المقر الرسمي لوزير المستعمرات.
