NAME : MR. ONG HONG KONG PJK M'SHIP NO : 053 ( DECEASED) Ong Hong Kong became a member of the club in 1975. During the past 40 years he has not only been an active member, but has served the Club Management in various capacities, initially as a sub committee member . He was elected the Hon. Secretary from 1979 - 1983. As a secretary, he revitalized the way the club office was run, introducing various efficient administrative procedures which helped the staff to carry out their duties efficiently. He also looked into the other aspects of running the general staff. Although some of his general management procedures were revolutionary for the club, these measures were however effective in stamping out time wasting and excessive and unwarranted overtime payments. The club certainly owes him grateful thanks for his excellent contribution. Hong Kong took up the game of golf when he joined the Club and soon immersed himself in the running of the Golf Section as well. He was a committee member of the Golf Section when this section was under the captaincy of Mr. Ooi Leong Seng. He served as the Golf Secretary when YBhg. Dato Seri Yeop Junior was the Golf Captain, as well as under the captaincy of Mr. Tan Lian Huat, and eventually, in 2010 – 2011, he was elected as the Golf Captain. Ong Hong Kong, who is past his 34 years, continues to be active in golf and currently he is the Vice Captain for the Section. Hong Kong was also keen on the development of the Club so that better facilities are made available to members. He spearheaded a committee to look into the resurfacing of our tennis courts. Most club members are unaware that the existence of the swimming pool at the club was also the brainchild of Hong Kong, who made the proposal at the Annual General Meeting that the club make a decision to construct a 25m swimming pool at its present site. This proposal became an urgent issue as our unique swimming pool at the foot of the Taiping waterfall was taken back by the state government. TNC members would like to record their thanks and appreciation for his long and faithful service.
