Yam Ah Mee is the current Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Land Transport Authority (LTA)[1] of Singapore since 2005[2]. Prior to holding this position, he was the Deputy Secretary (Sea & Air) at the Ministry of Transport. When he was there, he mainly oversaw the development of strategies and policy direction in the Sea and Air Transport Sectors.

In the recent Singaporean general election, 2011, held on 7 May 2011, he was appointed as the Returning Officer. His duty was to announce officially the elected Members of Parliament. Because of his deadpan expression and monotonous tone while making the announcements, he became an unexpected overnight sensation[3] on video-sharing site, YouTube[4], and social networking site, Facebook.
