Public profile
伍海山 · Medal of Honour (MH)
A public figure in Hong Kong transport and sport: reported in the media as Executive Director / Managing Director of Tai Wo Management, advancing the JOIE urban taxi fleet; and serving as President of the Fencing Association of Hong Kong, China, in the lead-up to the 2026 Fencing World Championships in Hong Kong.
About
Aaron Ng Hoi-shan (伍海山) is a second-generation industry figure often referred to in Hong Kong media as a “taxi king.” His father, Ng Fong (伍熀)—founder of Tai Wo Motors—has also been associated with that nickname. Reports state that after inheriting or taking over the family business, Mr Ng expanded the fleet, including through bank financing.
Business
From Tai Wo Motors—described in Sing Tao–group coverage as rooted in Hong Kong for about half a century—to the Transport Department–licensed urban taxi fleet JOIE under Tai Wo Management, the focus remains quality taxi service and fleet operations.
Historical newspaper figures (not current verified counts): In 2012, Wen Wei Po cited sources saying the largest taxi-licence holder was Tai Wo’s Aaron Ng—then reported as 611 urban and 187 New Territories licences—and that he expanded holdings by about 80% after buying licences heavily during the 2008 financial crisis. These figures reflect contemporaneous reporting only; no equivalent authoritative public update of current personal holdings has been identified.
JOIE is an orange urban taxi fleet operated by Tai Wo Management Limited. On 28 July 2025, the Transport Department announced formal taxi-fleet licences; JOIE holds licence number 005 for five years and entered formal service that day.
Tai Wo Motors established in To Kwa Wan; later managed / expanded by Aaron Ng (per public reports).
Reports of licence expansion after the financial crisis; 2012 Wen Wei Po coverage of then holdings (see historical note above).
Transport Department issued conditional temporary approvals to five selected taxi fleets, including JOIE.
JOIE app launched for trial operations with about 200 taxis.
Formal fleet licence 005 issued; JOIE entered formal service.
Our mission is not only to replace fuel vehicles — but to lead the industry toward smart-city mobility.— Aaron Ng, Managing Director, Tai Wo Management (publicly quoted on the YAS case page)
Sport
Event and championship materials identify Mr Ng Hoi Shan, Aaron, MH as President of the Fencing Association of Hong Kong, China. Honorary presidents and the president have distinct roles (for example, event photo captions list Mr Lo Kwok-hung, BBS, MH, OStJ among honorary presidents). This page follows fencing2026 and M Mark event labelling and does not speculate about a personal competitive fencing résumé.
He published a presidential welcome message on the official site of the Kerry Fencing World Championships 2026 Hong Kong, China, on behalf of the Association.
Hong Kong hosts the Senior World Championships (22–30 July 2026). FIE-related invitation materials refer to FAHKC President Mr Hoi Shan Ng, Aaron MH.
Public coverage primarily confirms his role as president / sports administrator. Whether he personally trains or has competed as an athlete is not detailed in reliable reports; this site does not invent such content.
Community
Mr Ng has dedicated himself to serving the Kowloon City District, particularly in promoting fire safety, crime prevention and civic awareness. He is awarded the Medal of Honour in recognition of his contributions.
In 2017 he received the Chief Executive’s Commendation for Community Service (not the Medal of Honour that year).

Media
Recent coverage has focused on JOIE’s trial and formal licensing, taxi industry service and operations, and Fencing Association events.
In 2025, SCMP, Wen Wei Po, The Standard and others reported on the trial launch, booking rules, e-payments, and accessibility / multilingual positioning. Early trial coverage also noted booking difficulty at peak hours—operational reporting from the bedding-in period.
In June 2024, media reported remarks on taxi drivers’ income and service attitudes; he later reiterated that overcharging is illegal and involves only a small minority. Some industry voices were reported to have criticised the phrasing. See contemporary news reports; this site does not elaborate.
