10-3-2024 (JAKARTA) Aden Wong, a Singaporean national, has resigned from his prominent position at DP World amidst allegations of an extramarital affair with Indonesia singer Tisya Erni. The fallout from this personal crisis has cast a shadow over Wong’s professional life, culminating in his departure from the multinational company.
Previously serving as the Vice President of Business Development at DP World, Wong, the husband of South Korean national Amy BMJ, took to his LinkedIn account to announce his resignation, effective March 8, 2024. In a poignant message, he stated, “My employment with DP World has ended on March 8, 2024. Thank you for being part of my professional network. I hope to maintain connections with all of you.”
While Wong refrained from delving into the specifics behind his resignation, the timing of his departure coincides with the tumultuous allegations surrounding his alleged affair with Tisya Erni, casting a cloud of speculation over the circumstances.
The saga began when Amy, Wong’s South Korean wife, made a public statement on social media accusing her husband of infidelity. Adding to the complexity of the situation, Amy claimed that she had been forcibly separated from their four children. In a distressing video shared online, Amy can be seen attempting to retrieve one of her children from Tisya Erni’s care, highlighting the depth of the rift within the family.
Remarkably, despite the allegations of infidelity and the forced separation from her children, one of whom was still breastfeeding, Amy and Aden Wong’s marital status remained officially intact according to Singaporean records.
Adding to the complexity of the situation, Erni has faced a police report for adultery, a grave accusation that carries significant stigma in the region. This development has fueled a media frenzy, with anticipation building for further revelations.
Erni’s controversial presence in the spotlight is not a novel occurrence, as she was previously implicated as a homewrecker in the high-profile marriage dissolution between comedian Sule and his then-wife Nathalie Holscher. The singer once again finds herself at the centre of intense public scrutiny following the recent allegations.
The backstory of Wong’s personal life reveals a 16-year marriage to Amy, which was blessed with four children, including a newborn in 2023. Amy herself disclosed through her social media account that she discovered her husband’s alleged affair with his purported personal assistant, identified only as TE, during her solitary childbirth experience.
Amy’s initial encounter with Wong began when she worked as his Personal Assistant at an undisclosed company. Wong’s professional calibre is well-documented, with his career at DP World, a leading logistics company, including a tenure as Regional Director – Business Development for the Asia Pacific and Australasia region since 2021.
Wong’s reach within the company was significant, as evidenced by a documented visit to the Indonesian Ministry of Trade in 2022, where he was received by the Minister Muhammad Lutfi. Wong’s ascent within DP World culminated in his position as Vice President, Business Development – Ports & Terminals, APAC, a role he held until the recent scandal unfolded.
