According to comprehensive reports from Sing Tao Headline and HK01, Shun Tak Holdings made an announcement today mourning the passing of Maisy Ho, accompanied by a notice from her family. The notice, signed by Pansy Ho, Daisy Ho, Josie Ho, and Lawrence Ho, stated, "Our dearest sister, Maisy Ho, passed away peacefully on April 12, 2026." Her family was by her side until the end. They thanked everyone for their condolences and concern, and requested understanding and tolerance during this time of grief.
Maisy Ho was the third daughter of Stanley Ho and his second wife, Lucina Laam. The casino king once called her his most helpful daughter. Her older sister is Pansy Ho, Executive Chairman and Managing Director of Shun Tak Holdings; her second older sister is Daisy Ho, the group's Executive Director and Deputy Managing Director; and she is survived by her younger sister Josie Ho and younger brother Lawrence Ho.
The report points out that casino king Stanley Ho had 17 children, and his second wife Lucina Laam had 4 daughters and 1 son. Lucina Laam's daughters often appeared in the media, with Pansy Ho and celebrity Josie Ho having the most exposure. Daisy Ho was known to the outside world as Pansy Ho's right-hand woman, with superb work abilities.
In contrast, Maisy Ho, born in 1966, had a more reserved personality since childhood. Unmarried throughout her life, she dedicated her entire life to the casino king's family business.
The Chinese Communist Party has treated the Stanley Ho family with considerable courtesy. Maisy Ho once served as a standing committee member of the 13th Liaoning Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference; Pansy Ho is currently a standing committee member of the National Committee of the CPPCC and a vice-chairwoman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce.
