Andrew Tan takes ice bucket challenge



Billionaire industrialist Andrew Tan became the first Filipino tycoon to take the ice bucket challenge yesterday, pouring a pail of ice cold water over his head at his home and promising to donate an unspecified amount in the fight against Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

The Megaworld chairman, in a video, also dared three other businessman to take the challenge: McDonald’s Philippines – Golden Arches Development Corp. president Kenneth Yang, Asian Institute of Management president Steven DeKrey and Accenture Philippines country head Manolito Tayag.

Justice Secretary Leila de Lima said she would take the challenge in her office this afternoon because “it’s for a worthy cause.” Revenue Commissioner Kim Henares promised to do the same at an unspecified date and said she would also donate.
