Mohamed Noh Alam Shah (born 3 September 1980) is a retired professional football player from Singapore. Once regarded as one of the best forwards in South East Asia, Alam Shah was a member of the Singapore national football team when it won the AFF Championship in 2005 and 2007. At the 2007 competition, he was the top individual scorer and was named the 'Most Valuable Player' of the tournament. He is overall top goalscorer in AFF Championship history, with 17 goals.
At club level, he was a member of the Tampines Rovers team which won Singapore's S.League in 2004 and 2005.
Alam Shah is also well known for his volatile temper, which got him into trouble on a number of occasions. An incident of violent conduct when he knocked another player unconscious while playing for Tampines Rovers in the 2007 Singapore Cup final led to Alam Shah being given a 12-month ban from playing club-level football. The ban was later reduced to 7 months on appeal.
On 11 September 2009 he scored a hat-trick against Sengkang Punggol FC in his last match for Tampines Rovers before joining Arema Malang.
On 20 August 2015, Alam Shah was spotted driving GrabCar, a private on-demand chauffeur service on the GrabTaxi app platform. He remains a local hero.
Alam Shah currently works as operations executive at the car rental department of Komoco Motors.
After stints with Sembawang Rangers and the Singapore Armed Forces Football Club (SAFFC), Alam Shah joined Tampines Rovers in 2003. He helped the Stags win the S.League title in 2004 and 2005.
Alam Shah's good form earned him trials with Notts County in England and Skonto Riga in Latvia. However neither trial led to a deal due to work permit issues and language problems respectively.
