During more than four years with WWF Singapore, Ng worked on programmes that highlighted the illegal wildlife trade in Southeast Asia, the sharks fin trade, and marine plastic pollution.
One of the most memorable campaigns Ng worked on was Ivory Lane, a fictitious ivory brand launched by WWF in 2018. The campaign contributed to public support for a ban on ivory in Singapore, which is set to come into place in September this year.
