Biography
Angela Leong is co-chairman and the largest individual shareholder of casino company SJM Holdings. She is also an elected Macau legislator.
Hong Kong-listed SJM Holdings operates casino resorts including L'Arc and the Grand Lisboa Palace Resort in Macau.
She is the fourth wife of the late Stanley Ho, who started Sociedade de Turismo e Diversoes de Macau, or STDM, which controls SJM Holdings.
Leong, who started investing in her early 20s, also has a large portfolio of Hong Kong properties, to which she owes the vast majority of her wealth.
About
Leong came from a wealthy army family, but things changed when her father died in 1974. She joined a dance school partly for the free accommodation, as her family had to move out of government housing.
In 1986, Leong met Macau legend Stanley Ho, now deceased, through his brother, who had been attending her dance class.
