Dato' Ong Beng Seng (Chinese: 王明星; pinyin: Wáng Míng Xīng; born January 1946), often known by his initials, OBS, is a Singapore-based Malaysian billionaire businessman.
In 1975, he joined Kuo International, founded by businessman Peter Fu Yun Siak and there he met his later-to-be spouse, Christina.
Today, he controls many businesses, including a few based in Bond Street in London, and his investments are worth tens of millions of dollars.
[3][4] On 22 April 1996, the Stock Exchange of Singapore criticised HPL for not having been "forthcoming" about discounts it had given to several prominent individuals in relation to property sales.
[7] After reviewing the results of an investigation by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), then-Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong cleared the Lees of any wrongdoing.
[10] The charging of Ong closely followed the Singapore High Court's decision on 3 October 2024 to sentence Iswaran to 12 months imprisonment for obtaining valuable items as a public servant and obstructing justice.
