Dr. Tan also donated P10 million to the then-National Disaster Coordinating Council and turned over 10,000 bags of relief goods to the Department of Social Welfare and Development for distribution in the other affected provinces of Aklan and Antique. In an unexpected act of helpfulness, emergency loans and cash assistance were also extended to families whose houses were destroyed or swept away by the typhoon. These are examples of the heart that goes with the muscle of the Tan Yan Kee Foundation, as masterminded by the Kapitan.
