Lucio Tan

Business:

 Tan is a billionaire businessman and educator with interest in banking, airline,

liquor, tobacco, real state industries and education.

 Tan is the Chairman and CEO of Philippine Airline and Chairman of The Board

(LT Group, Inc.).

Problem Solved:

Forbes reported in 1998 that Tan was spending his free time "jousting with the

government over charges of tax evasion" and with Philippine Airlines "shareholders who

tried to block his bid for the airline."

Community Helped by Tan:

As early as 1986, Mr. Tan and his siblings established the Tan Yan Kee

Foundation, Inc. (TYKFI), which was named in honor of their father Tan Yan Kee. The

companies under LT Group and other firms that are majority-owned by the Tan family

conduct most of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities under the

foundation.

The TYKFI and its partners pursue projects that focus on four advocacies,

namely education, health services, social welfare and the environment. Today, and in

years past, Tan Yan Kee Foundation, Inc. and our various companies have been

investing time and resources for projects that help uplift the lives of Filipinos.
