Winnie Ho, estranged sister of Stanley Ho, dies aged 95

Winnie Ho, estranged sister of Stanley Ho, dies aged 95
Print Friendly, PDF & Email

The sister of Macau gaming godfather Stanley Ho has passed away, aged 95.

According to the South China Morning Post, a family spokesperson confirmed that Winnie Ho Yuen-ki passed away on 5 June 2018 at Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital following a long battle with illness.

Ho worked alongside her brother at Sociedade de Turismo e Diversoes de Macau (STDM) – the Macau gaming monopoly he co-founded – for 23 years between 1977 and 2000 but their relationship soured in a family powerplay after liberalization of the Macau casino industry.

After Stanley Ho gained control of STDM, the pair spent the next eight years engaged in legal disputes over Winnie Ho’s interests in the company, finally settling in 2008 when STDM created its new gaming arm, SJM Holdings.

Stanley Ho has himself been gravely ill since suffering a bad fall in 2009 and stepped down as Chairman of SJM earlier this year. Daughter Daisy Ho has since taken over that role. Stanley Ho also stepped down as Executive Chairman of Shun Tak Holdings in July 2017, with another of his daughters – MGM China Co-Chairperson and Executive Director Pansy Ho – subsequently stepping into the top job.
