Phraya Manopakorn Nititada (Thai: พระยามโนปกรณ์นิติธาดา, Thai pronunciation: [pʰrá.jaː.má.noː.pà.kɔːn.ní.tì.tʰaː.daː]), born Kon Hutasingha (Thai: ก้อน หุตะสิงห์, Thai pronunciation: [kɔ̂ːn hù.tà.sǐŋ]) (15 July 1884 – 1 October 1948), was the first Prime Minister of Siam after the Siamese Revolution of 1932 as he was selected by the leader of the People's Party – the party that instigated the revolution. However, in the following year, Manoparkorn was ousted by a coup in 1933 due to the conflicts between members of People's Party.

Kon Hutasingha was born on 15 July 1884 in Bangkok to Huad and Kaew Hutasingha (Thai: นายฮวด กับนางแก้ว หุตะสิงห์), both of whom were of Chinese extraction. He received his primary education at Suankularb Wittayalai School in Bangkok. He pursued his law education at Assumption College and at the Law School of the Ministry of Justice. He then continued his studies abroad; at the Middle Temple, in London, England. After he had finished his education, he began to work for the Ministry of Justice and climbed the traditional career ladder and was eventually granted the title Phraya and received his honorary name: "Manopakorn Nititada". In 1918, he gained a seat in the Privy Council of King Vajiravudh (or Rama VI).
