The Best Current Affairs Presenter was an award presented annually at the Star Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1994. ^[1]

The category was introduced in 2010, at the 16th Star Awards ceremony. It was introduced as a result of the discontinuation of the Best News/Current Affairs Presenter award to create distinctions news and current affairs presenters.

The award was given in honour of a Mediacorp presenter who has delivered an outstanding performance in a current affairs programme. The nominees were determined by a team of judges employed by Mediacorp; winners were selected by a majority vote from the entire judging panel. Chun Guek Lay is the inaugural winner in this category for her performance in Focus.

The award was given to three presenters in the 4 years that the award was presented before its final appearance as an awar in 2013. Chun and Tung Soo Hua were the final winners for their performances in Focus and Money Week respectively. Since the ceremony held in 2013, Chun is also the only presenter to win in this category three times, surpassing Tung who has two wins. Desmond Lim and Qi Qi hold the record for the most nominations without a win.

The award is currently being suspended and have not been presented since 2014 due to the lack of eligible nominees.^{[ citation needed ]}
