Brother of businessman Tan Ah Meng, said he and his Taiwanese wife, Chuang Hsiu Ling, were supposed to go to Beijing on an earlier flight but later decided to board the MH370 with their eldest son, Tan Wei Chew, 19, before he leaves for studies in the United States.
Tan's brother said his mother had been crying since the announcement that the flight had ended in the Indian Ocean. He said,” My parents are very old. One is 84 and the other is 82 and both suffer from heart ailments. We are afraid they might not be able to take it and would just collapse. They are already very heartbroken.”
The couple has two other sons, aged 14 and 12, who have been staying with relatives since the aircraft went missing on March 8. ATWMY-019-2
