I heard the "Ts" is pronounced like "Ch" in English but, in Cantonese its supposed to be a "J" sound. I dont know exactly how its supposed to be pronounced because i dont know Cantonese but, if Cantonese is anything like Mandarin then its pronounced like jah-ng.

The name can also be rendered as Zeng(Mandarin. Pronounced: zuh-ng), Tseng(Taiwanese. I dont know how its pronounced in the Taiwanese Minnan. sorry, dont speak that language. but in Taiwanese Mandarin it should be the same as Zeng), Chan(Malay. Again, dont speak Malay so, dont know how its pronounced), Tjan(Indonesia. Pronounced: Dont know), and of course, Chang(English. Pronounced: chay-ng but, if you pronounce it in Mandarin its chah-ng)
