Tycoon Robert Ng, his 3 children designated politically significant persons under FICA

It is not linked to any allegations of misconduct.

Singapore tycoon Robert Ng Chee Siong and his three children, Daryl Ng Win Kong, Nikki Ng Mien Hua, and David Ng Win Loong have been designated as politically significant persons (PSPs) under the Foreign Interference (Countermeasures) Act 2021 (FICA), the Ministry of Home Affairs said.

The four individuals made the required declarations to the Registry of Foreign and Political Disclosures in 2024, as mandated by section 79 of FICA. This declaration is a legal requirement for Singaporean citizens involved with foreign political entities.

The registrar has assessed their memberships and determined they meet the criteria for PSP designation under section 48(1) of FICA. Notices of Intended Designation were issued to the individuals on 7 April.

The designation is not linked to any allegations of misconduct. As PSPs, the individuals must disclose political donations of $10,000 or more, foreign affiliations, and migration benefits annually to the registrar.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
