Jee Say, Kin Lian and Cheng Bock have been kicked out of the Tan family and can no longer use the surname 'Tan'. These disgraceful traitors and their descendents have been stripped of the ancestry surname and will forever live in infamy in the annals of the Tan clan. There is only one 'Tan' in this election and that is President to be President Tony Tan.
