"Ng lives in the same house he has had for 30 years, "...
the house is located just at the junction of Dunearn Road and Watten Estate house...on a sprawling land. If I have a house that big, LOL I will live in there for 30 years or more, so long as I am alive. The house is labelled "Ng's Mansion" and has a security guardhouse.
I happened to walk pass a few times when the gate opens... and it's a Rolls Royce rolling out... complete with Chauffeur just to go across the street to do grocery marketing at NTUC at Coronation Plaza.
not being a sour grape... just telling u guys what I saw. Well, Newspaper... reports. It is correct to say he lives in the same house for past x decades...I would think It's 'hard' for anyone to move house under this special circumstance.

Today, he is one of Hong Kong's largest real estate developers, and he is one of the largest landholders of Far East Organization in Singapore. He also owns The Fullerton Singapore in Singapore. His older son, Robert, and younger son, Philip, are in charge of the Hong Kong and Singapore businesses respectively.
