Jennifer Ong Hapa, Mhim Email & Phone Number

A Woman of GRIT!!A word that defines me best, but might sound vague to you since you don’t know me. So, who am I?I am Jennifer Ong, a proud mother of three and an accidental entrepreneur becoming the Founder and CEO of HAPA Group after I lost my first husband leaving behind debts for me! An accidental entrepreneur with my late husband when we started the company in 1994 with our first magazine, Hospitality Asia leaving me with lots of debts as we had over-expanded too fast. I then managed the entire business clearing debts & rebuilding the publishing business. In 2002, thinking outside the box, I launched the HAPA Awards.Now you might be wondering what’s HAPA - So that’s a platform born in 1994 with one simple goal: We started off as a publishing house. Wanted to create trade publications (B2B) for the hospitality and retail industries and launched Hospitality Asia and Retail World Asia. We wanted to provide the two industries with a platform where buyers and sellers could get trade information specifically for the industry. There was none in Malaysia to elevate and innovate the hospitality, tourism, airline, hotels, and travel industries across Asia. For over 30 years, I’ve had the privilege of watching this vision grow into something bigger than I ever imagined, through five distinct brands under the HAPA family: 🔥 Hospitality Asia (Media), 🔥 HAPA Awards (Awards), 🔥 HAPA Events (Events), 🔥 HAPA Academy (Training), and 🔥 No Address Society (Dining and Networking).But more than just titles and brands, my journey is about people. About connections. About making a difference. Along the way, I’ve learned that no matter the industry, it all comes down - The HUMAN MIND potential waiting to be discovered. That’s why I’ve also got myself to be a Certified NLP Trainer and an advocate for mindset transformation.So, if you are someone who is looking to chase your dreams but hasn’t had a chance to stumble upon your true power, here is How Can I Help You --- Empower you or your organization with mindset training that transforms obstacles into opportunities at The MIND Academy.Raise industry standards across hospitality, retail, travel, and lifestyle through HAPA Group’s dynamic platforms in media, awards, events, and networking.Spark motivation and inspire change through authentic, thought-provoking content on HAPA TV and JENN TV.Uplift women through empowerment initiatives, because we rise by lifting others.Okay, so enough about me! Now that you know how I can help, let's elevate, empower, and grow—together.
