Sakae filed a separate suit on April 2013 against Ong and 2 other men for breaching his fiduciary duties, including siphoning funds of $26 million from Griffon Real Estate Investment Holdings, of which Sakae was a minority shareholder. On 8 April 2017, the courts found against the 3 men and ordered them to pay $35million to Griffon, and Ong was ordered to pay $2.64 million to Sakae. On 3 August 2018, Ong, with 3 other men, was again taken to court over criminal breach of trust offenses committed between 2011 and 2016, including allegedly transferring $8million to his personal accounts and an unauthorized transfer of $15.8 million. Ong was offered bail at $700,000.
In 2016, Ong, as CEO of ERC, designed BIGWork with Yen Ong, founder of the co-working space. It is the first Southeast Asian co-working space to offer a multi-city pass across cities in Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh and Singapore. BIGWork offers entrepreneurs a co-working space and community at lower costs.

Ong was educated at Raffles Institution, St Andrew's Junior College and the National University of Singapore. From the age of 15 – 24, he worked as a helper at a kitchen in Holland village restaurant where he chopped vegetables from 6pm – 11pm daily after school.
In January 2013, Sakae Holdings filed a suit against Ong for allegedly breaching duties when he was a non-executive director of the company, among other allegations. This came about when an international accounting firm commissioned by Sakae’s executive chairman and CEO Douglas Foo to investigate Griffin Real Estate Investment Holdings. The firm reported that transactions had not been properly disclosed to Sakae and Foo, who is also the company’s representative on Griffin’s board.
In February 2013, the Sakae board asked Ong to tender his resignation within seven days. In a statement on 19 February 2013, Ong rejected the allegations and explained the use of the S$34 million in question. On 3 May 2013, Sakae withdrew the application to sue Ong and Ho Yew Kong, both former directors of Griffin, on behalf of Griffin. Following the withdrawal, Sakae was ordered by the court to pay more than $100,000 in legal costs and other fees relating to the two lawsuits it dropped.
In 2006, Ong who sat on the board of 15 private and public-listed companies, is a certified financial planner and was the founding president of the Financial Planning Association of Singapore. ERC now has a presence in various countries such as Singapore, Thailand and China and an ERC Institute campus in Vietnam.

Upon graduation from university, Ong worked at a managing editor at a publishing firm until he was retrenched in the 1997 financial crisis.
