She succeeds Khoo Teng Chye, who has been ULI Singapore chairman for two years, and was the first regional council chair to come from the public sector. He is executive director for the Centre for Liveable Cities, which is part of the Ministry of National Development.
“It is an honour for me to be invited to be chair of ULI Singapore, building on the outstanding work that Teng Chye has done,” says Ong. “I want to further promote the great work that ULI is doing in Singapore and to work with both the public and educational sectors in helping to extend ULI’s mission in the market.”
In her new role, she plans to focus her efforts on expanding ULI’s advisory services programme by introducing technical assistance panels, which will address local land use challenges. She will form a product council of select ULI members to share best practices related to the responsible use of land. Finally, she intends to build up the NEXT Member Network in Singapore, elevating the next generation of leaders for the built environment and ULI.
