| - Ngo was the captain of Jeremiah Llyn's ship in the middle of the 16th Century PD. (HHA6.2: ACTA)
- NGO stands for "non-governmental organization". These independent entities are often international in scope and shepherding thousands of employees, focus on world problems such as poverty, health care or women's rights. Unlike corporations, NGOs are not-profit. Real NGOs that are well known include the Red Cross, Oxfam, Doctors Without Borders and Amnesty International.
