Ah Ket fought against the requirements of the 1907 ''Factories (Employment of Chinese)'' Act, which discriminated against Chinese residents, 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Furniture making )〕 and successfully opposed legislative amendments in 1904, 1905 and 1907 which would have specifically discriminated against Chinese residents in the furniture industry. He was a co-founder of the Australian-Chinese Association and one of two delegates from the Chinese community in Australia to the opening of the Chinese national parliament of 1912. In 1913-14 and 1917, he acted as Consul-General for China in Melbourne.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WILLIAM AH KET )〕
