I noted that Teo CH's mother passed away recently. Her maiden name was Tan Suang. According to the stories, TCH's father Teo Cheng Guan was working at OCBC at that time and met the mother Tan Suang there. My question is whether Tan Suang is related to the Tan Chin Tuan family that owned OCBC at that time. Don't forget that Teo CH's grandfather Teo Beng Wan was also an executive of OCBC. Obviously, the Teos were known in OCBC, and being a traditional chinese run business, is it not possible for the Tans to marry of their daughter or niece to Teo Cheng Guan? In the end, he ended up being chairman of the bank, which is a high acheivement for a non Tan family relative, unless of course, his wife Tan Suang was a relative.
If Tan SUang was indeed related to Tan Chin Tuan, that wouls make Gay Loong a blood relative of TCH. Gay Loong's grand mother and Tan Chin Tuan's wife were sisters. So, if Tan Suang is related to Tan Chin Tuan, than Gay Loong is his blood relative. Any bros know the answer to my question?
