JACINTO NG, JR., group executive officer of Raemulan Lands, Inc., was named the EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2024 Philippines in an awards banquet held at the Makati Shangri-La on Wednesday night. He will represent the country at the EY World Entrepreneur of the Year awards in Monte Carlo, Monaco in June 2025.

Mr. Ng was recognized for shaping opportunities and uplifting the social welfare of low-income Filipinos. His company, Raemulan Lands, has provided many families with resources, education and support to rise above poverty and achieve their dreams of owning a home, while also creating job opportunities and developing thriving communities among homeowners.

Mr. Ng also received the Master Entrepreneur award for maintaining management excellence over a period of time in critical areas of the company including finance, marketing, human resources and sales. He established Raemulan Lands to develop socialized housing projects that redefined affordable housing by integrating sustainability and affordability in their core design. Under his leadership, the company experienced tremendous growth even during a coronavirus pandemic, building more than 30,000 homes for those in need and fostering a sense of community and resilience among its residents.
