Keith Ng Shui Ting (born January 6, 1966), known professionally as Ng Shui Ting and briefly as Ng Ho-wing, is a Hong Kong actor and art director under basic contract with TVB.[1] He returned to TVB in 2017 after a 27‑year career in art direction overseas, and also worked with Shaw Brothers from 2019 to 2025.

Early Life

Ng was born into a Teochew family in Hong Kong and grew up in Lower Ngau Tau Kok Estate. He is one of six siblings. [2][3]His father passed away when Ng was two or three, and his mother ran a small daily goods shop in the same neighbourhood. As a boy he often played at the nearby quarry at Ping Shan. He attended St. Joseph’s College, where he competed in swimming, basketball, and track and field.[4]

After completing Form 5, Ng worked briefly as an office clerk and then as a sales assistant in a ladies’ fashion store on Kimberley Road, Tsim Sha Tsui. In 1985 a friend enrolled him in a three‑month evening performance training course run by TVB’s affiliated “Sunshine Educational Centre.” He was selected by TVB’s Artists Department and signed as a contract artiste.

Career

Ng made his acting debut at TVB in 1986, appearing in series such as Return of the Cunning Heroes, Legends of Mountain Shu, and Blood in the West Pond. Concurrently he continued part‑time work, including small roles and voice work for Radio Television Hong Kong dramas.

In 1992, Ng’s TVB contract was not renewed. He moved to Malaysia to work for HVD’s production arm, where he transitioned into art direction. Over seven years in Malaysia he also networked with executives such as Yang Pan‑pan, who introduced him to film art director roles. He handled set design for nightclubs, commercials, and corporate events, and briefly ran a fabric wholesale and garment business in Mong Kok.

Ng returned to Hong Kong during the Asian financial crisis in 1997 and focused on art direction for productions including Hollywood Tomb. In 2017 he served as art director on the TVB series School Rescue Mission, where colleagues encouraged him to resume acting. He landed a cameo in Come Home, Happy Delivery and next appeared on‑screen in The White Storm. Since then he has balanced art direction with supporting acting roles.

Personal Life

Ng married his wife, a former retail professional, in 2010; they have one daughter. For a time he adopted the stage name Ng Ho‑wing but reverted to his birth name for TVB credits.
