He also started doing restoration and rebuilding work on imported used pianos with the help of his second son, Hoe Tuck Foo. He imported new pianos from United Kingdom under the brand name Kemble, John Brinsmead, Bentley, J & J Hopkinson, Rogers, Leswein and Zender. In 1951, Hoe Ah Choy started a small enterprise named “Wagner Piano Company” along with his wife, Kong Kim Goh in Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman (then known as Batu Road). Moutrie, Robinson & Company closed down in the early 1950′s. In 1936 at the age of 25, the young factory trained piano technician was sent to Malaysia by the manager as a piano tuner and repairer for Moutrie, Robinson & Company. Moutrie pianos enjoyed great recognition in China and a lot of the pianos were sold to Southeast Asian countries. While Hoe Fook Ling is still in Singapore, his only son, Hoe Ah Choy, at a very young age follows his father’s footstep and took up apprenticeship in “Moutrie, Robinson & Company”, the first British piano factory operating in Shanghai, China. His father died and being the only son he decided to stay back to look after his family thus his early retirement from piano business. At the age of 48, he sold off his business and went back to China as his father was very ill. With admiration and respect, people in the piano industry nicknamed him “King of Piano”. He became the first person to build a piano in Singapore under the brand name “Kinner”. In Singapore he set up a piano business company “Union Piano Shop” with a relative from the same province and at the same time opened a branch in Malaysia (then known as Federation of Malaya). His wife, six daughters and only son remained in China.
