Joaquim Pinto Correia

Joaquim Germano Pinto Machado Correia da Silva (15 June 1930, in Porto – 14 March 2011) was the 124th Governor of Macau from 5 May 1985 to 8 July 1987. As a physician, he was the first Governor of Macau who was not a military general. He advocated humanism and social welfare during his term of office, and visited Guangzhou on 22–24 February 1987. He resigned from office in May 1987, giving rise to the rumour that his resignation was related to corruption.
