Early life
Alfred Kan-Ngam Arthur is the second son of AS Arthur who is a retired Bureaucrat and a politician from Shangshak Phunghon village in Ukhrul district. Prior to joining politics, Alfred had a short stint as a musician and a vocalist in a rock band and thereafter turned to social work and investigative journalism. For the first time, he was fielded in the Assembly Elections in Manipur as a Congress candidate in 2012 general elections. However, he lost the elections to his nearest rival, Samuel Risom from the Naga People's Front by a narrow margin of 56 votes.
Political career
As a legislator, Alfred is considered one of the most vocal members in the house.[4][5] The improvement of government run educational institutions in Ukhrul district and revamping of Ukhrul District Hospital are attributed as outcome of Alfred's constant arguments and reminders in the state Assembly.[6][7] Pettigrew College, one of the oldest colleges in Manipur and the only government college in Ukhrul district which was in a dysfunctional state was revived through the initiative of Alfred. He is also considered a strong advocate for youth reformation and empowerment owing to his active involvement in several youth related activities.[8][9]
