History edit
The company was founded in 1972 as Ong & Ong Architects & Town Planners. It was incorporated in 2007 as ONG & ONG Private Limited.[5]
In 2001, Ong's youngest son Ong Tze Boon became the Group Executive Chairman of the company. In July 2021, a legal dispute concerning shareholdings in the holding company controlling the architectural business, established by their parents, surfaced between Ong's two sons.[2][6] The dispute was subsequently resolved through mediation in October 2021.[7][8]
In 2010, Ashvinkumar Kantilal assumed the role of Group Chief Executive Officer at ONG & ONG.[9]
