The Hon. Ngo′, Lord of Mik PC MP (Shinasthana: 密侯耦, mik-go-ngo′; Jun. 5, 1847 – Sep. 17, 1928) was a Themiclesian military officer and Liberal politician. He served as prime minister between 1910 and 1912, and again between 1915 and 1916.

During his first tenure, he focused on the reduction of the progressive income tax introduced by the Lord of Krungh. At the same time and in his second tenure, he heavily reformed the army and funded naval ships. His leadership in the Liberal Party paved the way for the first non-titled person to become prime minister, Goh Mjanh-krje, while the Consolidated Army today venerate him as the "Father of the Army".
