Pansy (born on 26 August 1962), is the daughter of gambling tycoon Stanley Ho, 89, a longtime fixture on the Forbes Hong Kong Rich List. Although the elder Ho’s four-decade monopoly on gambling in Macau was ended in 2002, the industry is still very much a family affair. Besides Pansy’s role with MGM China, her brother Lawrence Ho is co-chairman of Melco Crown Entertainment, a joint venture with Australian billionaire James Packer.
