The name is suspicious because "Jia Cheong Tan" uses two different romanization of Chinese used in different regions. "Jia" and "Tan" seems to be pinyin, which is commonly used in the mainland; yet "cheong" uses probably Wade-Giles which is used in Taiwan.

OP seems to suggest cheong is Jyuping, which is used as a romanization for cantonese, but according to wikipedia, "eong" is not a final for Jyuping. So I don't think this is Jyuping.

disclaimer: I don't know a lot about Jyuping or Wade-Giles, so everything I put out is from wikipedia.
