Aging Macau casino tycoon Stanley Ho stays healthy in Hong Kong hospital

Macau’s legendary casino tycoon Stanley Ho stays healthy at the age of 97 in a private hospital in Hong Kong. His wife and daughter revealed the information, dousing the rumours about his ill-health.
Ho’s third wife Ina Chan Un Chan, and daughter Laurinda Ho Chiu-lin, spoke to media persons outside Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital in Happy Valley.
They said that he is not even under intensive care.
“He is in good shape. I don’t know why there were such rumours,” Chan said, adding that her husband could eat with and talk to family members.
She said Ho’s Lunar New Year wish was that his children remain obedient.
Stanley Ho, popularly known as the “King of Gambling”, has been the patriarch of Asia’s largest casino empire for four decades, and is an instrumental figure in propelling Macau into the world’s gambling hub.
Born in Hong Kong in 1921, Ho was one of the heirs of four powerful families with a grip on Hong Kong’s wealth in the colonial era. He was the grand nephew of Sir Robert Hotung and has 12 siblings.
