Maisy Ho, daughter of late tycoon Stanley Ho, dies at 59

Maisy Ho, executive director of Shun Tak Holdings and daughter of casino magnate Stanley Ho, has died at the age of 59. Her family confirmed that she passed away peacefully yesterday.

In a statement issued through Shun Tak, her siblings – including Pansy Ho, Josie Ho and Lawrence Ho – expressed gratitude for public condolences and requested privacy during their time of mourning. The company also conveyed deep sorrow over her passing.

“We regretfully share that our beloved sister Maisy Ho passed away peacefully on April 12, 2026, surrounded by the family,” the statement read. “We appreciate your condolences and ask for privacy during this difficult time.”

Ho was recognized for her dedication to public service. She held leadership roles in the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals and contributed to civic bodies such as the Equal Opportunities Commission. In 2016, she was awarded the Bronze Bauhinia Star in recognition of her service.

Just months before her death, Ho remained active in community initiatives, including charitable donations following a fatal residential fire in late 2025. She also served as founding president of the Hong Kong Federation of Liaoning Associations.
