The Third Desi Chogyal Minjur Tempa (Dzongkha: སྡེ་སྲིད་ཁྲི་རབས་གསུམ་པ་ཆོས་རྒྱ་མི་འགྱུར་བསྟན་པ born Damchho Lhendrub in 1613) was the third Druk Desi, the secular head of Bhutan, and previously the first penlop (governor) of Trongsa (Trongsab). His tenure as penlop was notable for the building of a watchtower and the unification of eight Eastern Districts into the Sharchog Khorlo Tsibgye.
