Henck Alphonsus Eugène Arron (25 April 1936 Paramaribo – 4 December 2000 Alphen aan den Rijn) was the Prime Minister of Suriname from 24 December 1973 to 25 February 1980, when he was overthrown in a military coup d'état by Dési Bouterse. During his rule Suriname was granted independence by the Netherlands on 25 November 1975.
Later in his life he served as Vice President of Suriname (and therefore Chairman of the Council of Ministers) from 26 January 1988 to 24 December 1990. His government was again overthrown in a coup led by Ivan Graanoogst.
