How this was researched
Kinship from Rappler (2013), SunStar (2015), Wikipedia and PCIJ; offices from the DBM 2026 directory and 2025 tallies. Arnold Tan is Ricardo’s brother and therefore the siblings’ uncle; a 2021 Leyte Samar Daily News report calling him a cousin is not followed. Stephany Uy-Tan is Jimboy Tan’s estranged wife and belongs to the Catbalogan Uy family; she is shown here only for that marriage link. Yolanda Tan (board member), Josie Tan (Calbayog councilor), Myrna Tan (Zumarraga) and Fe Tan-Arcales (former board member) share the surname without any published kinship and are not included.
