Ang’s younger son, Jomar, passed away last April 2020, at the age of 26. He served as chief financial officer of BMW distributor RSA Motors, and was also involved in San Miguel Global Power Holdings Inc. At the time of Jomar’s passing, the Ang family said in a statement that Jomar was a “dutiful, loving, and kind-hearted son, brother and a loyal and dedicated friend to many.”

His educ background and education

 

He was born in Manila, Philippines on January 14, 1954. His father owned a repair shop for motor vehicles in Tondo, Manila.

 

RSA was a dedicated student who worked odd jobs in order to fund his education and support his family. He graduated with a degree of Bachelor of Engineering in Far Eastern University (FEU). He also finished his doctorate degree in the same university.

In a speech to his alma mater’s 2018 graduating class, he acknowledged that it was his years as a working student when he learned how to do business. As he struggled in his humble life, he was able to develop business skills and lay a solid foundation for long-term success. Importantly, he learned to interact with people from all walks of life. He became sharp in reading and understanding individuals and their motivations and abilities. He knew how to be resilient to adapt to any situation, no matter how difficult, and to “make tough decisions based on gut instincts.”

 

Business life As a businessman

 

 

Ang learned how valuable it was to build long-term relationships with partners, allies, and friends. He acknowledged that these were the key to his success. After college, Ang followed in his father’s footsteps and went into the vehicles business. But he took a step further as he focused on fixing and selling luxury automobiles such as Japanese cars. He also traded and sold hard-to-find parts. It was through this business that Ang met the late Eduardo “Danding” Cojuangco when he sold him aluminum wheels.

This partnership paved the way for Ang to reach the road to his success. Cojuangco, the SMC owner, believed in Ang’s skills that he made him handle his cement enterprise in the north, then known as Northern Cement.

Ang didn’t disappoint Cojuangco’s trust as he made Northern Cement a profitable business. His entrepreneurial genius shone and impressed the rest of the Cojuangco family. When the Cojuangco patriarch had to leave the Philippines following the EDSA revolution, Ang took over and handled the firm very well.

 

Years later, Cojuangco returned and appointed Ang as his successor in SMC, selling him the majority of his shares
