Ong Boon Pang[1] (Chinese: 王文邦; pinyin: Wáng Wénbāng; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ông Bûn-pang; 1882 – 14 January 1940) was a Bruneian aristocrat, businessman, and Kapitan Cina who made important contributions to the Chinese community, especially in the areas of education and urban planning. He was dedicated to education, as evidenced by his efforts in establishing Chung Hwa Middle School, Bandar Seri Begawan,[2] the country's first Chinese school. He organised the Overseas Chinese Mutual Help Association, serving as its president and providing support to local Chinese residents in their daily lives.[3]
