He adopted the Christian name José Cojuangco ("El Chino" José) in 1865 when he moved to Bulacan.[2]
The Cojuangco clan is among the most powerful and influential families in the Philippines, exercising economic control over several banks (such as Bank of Commerce) and trade houses, notably the sugar trade (Hacienda Luisita and Central Azucarera de Tarlac).[3] The clan has at various time been highly involved in Philippine politics, with several members having entered public office in both local and national positions.
