MANILA -- Tycoon Lucio Tan took over as president of Philippine Airlines' holding firm, replacing his namesake son who died last November.

The board of PAL Holdings appointed Tan as president, concurrent to his existing role as chairman, the holding firm told the stock exchange.

The company will also raise its authorized capital stock to P30 billion from P13 billion, PAL Holdings said.

Tan's son, Lucio Tan Jr, died after a bad fall during a basketball game in November.
