Tai Kwok Yuen (Chinese: 戴國源[1] born 30 June 1941) was a general authority of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) from 1992 to 1997. Tai was the first ethnic Chinese person to serve as a general authority of the LDS Church.
Tai was born in Hong Kong and converted to Mormonism there in 1959. Prior to his call as a general authority, Tai served as president of the church's Hong Kong Mission and as a regional representative.
In 1992, Tai became a member of the church's Second Quorum of the Seventy. During his time as a general authority, Tai served in the presidency of the church's areas in Asia. After a five-year period of service, Tai was released. From 2004 to 2007, Tai was president of the church's Hong Kong China Temple.
