Louis Ng Kok Kwang (simplified Chinese: 黄国光; traditional Chinese: 黃國光; pinyin: Huáng Guó Guāng; born 8 December 1978) is a Singaporean politician and founder of Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (ACRES). A member of the Singapore-based People's Action Party (PAP), he has been serving as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Nee Soon Group Representation Constituency (GRC) since September 2015.
Ng had his early education at St. Gabriel's Secondary School and Catholic Junior College. He went on to complete his B.Sc. (Biology) degree in 2002 at the National University of Singapore. He then proceeded to Oxford Brookes University and obtained his M.Sc. degree in Primate Conservation.
While still an undergraduate in 2001, Ng founded Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (ACRES), an animal protection organisation aimed at fostering a spirit of volunteerism and working with the community to create much-needed awareness on animal protection issues. Upon graduating from the National University of Singapore in 2002, began full-time work in ACRES, leading ACRES from a volunteer-run organisation to one with over 20 full-time staff and over S$1 million in 2014.
On 26 August 2015, the People's Action Party (PAP) announced that Ng would be part of a five-member PAP team contesting in Nee Soon GRC in the 2015 general election. Ng was elected into Parliament following the 2015 Singapore General Elections, when their five-member PAP team won and clinched 66.83% of the electorate's valid votes.
