There is no such official position, and spouses of the prime minister do not undertake any official dealings on behalf of the government. They accompany their husbands on diplomatic trips, but are not accorded any special rights or privileges separate from their husband. The entire article is unsourced, and complicated further by Ho Ching's activities undertaken as CEO of Temasek Holdings, which does not reflect on her position as a spouse of the Prime Minister.

I think it's important to treat women as people in their own right and not as accessories to their husbands or their husbands' careers. Merging this content to List of prime ministers of Singapore would indeed be treating the PM spouses as accessories to the PMs and their careers. Moreover, who the PM's spouse is is a biographical detail unrelated to the role as PM. The proper place for that piece of biographical information is the biographical article about the individual PM. And of course, each individual spouse of a Singaporean PM can have a biographical article if they are independently notable, where the same information about who they're married to can be presented from the opposite direction, so to speak.
