Have you tried Freebmd? It's a case of trwling through deaths in neath - you don't need a name. Don't forget to look eiother side too. But without more info it could be impossible to pin him down.
A lot of Chinese people adopt an English first name over here too. For example, this sounds vaguely Chinese:

Pow Henry H 23 Neath 11a 1235

Wyen Kim 56 Neath 11a 883

Hi Janet.
Well.it's doable but tricky as over 1000 people died in neath in 1931!!
Do you know the date, or even the month, he died?
I'm assuming your father has his birth cert and no father is on there?
If he was a British citizen maybe he could vote, so a look at the electoral register might hold the answer.
