The message became even clearer after Leong’s husband Stanley Ho passed away in May at age 98. Yet Leong remains the most powerful executive at SJM, as well as the de facto gaming industry representative in Macau’s legislature, and her fingerprints are all over the former gaming monopoly holder’s future. In many ways, Leong typifies what China Outbound Tourism Research Institute CEO Wolfgang Arlt terms “the young old,” Chinese who have worked hard in recent decades to accumulate wealth. As they approach or enter retirement, they have time and money for travel. Leong, turning 60 in March, was born in Guangzhou and, working as a dance instructor, found wealth when she became the fourth wife of Stanley Ho, nearly 40 years her senior. In addition to her largest individual shareholding in SJM at 8.6% plus 6.9% of STDM, Leong has accumulated an international property portfolio worth billions. SJM’s Cotai integrated resort Grand Lisboa Palace, awaiting government approval to open, features hotels bearing the names and design input of European fashion icons Karl Lagerfeld and Donatella Versace. Its retail mall, however, features more affordable choices, the Macau flagship outlet of China Duty Free Group plus the city’s largest department store from the operators of New Yaohan. With son and fellow SJM director Arnaldo Ho, Leong’s Macau Theme Park and Resort Ltd is developing HK$5 billion (US$645 million) Lisboeta, across the street from Grand Lisboa Palace. The hotel and entertainment complex – without a theme park or, so far, a casino – promises new-to-Macau attractions such as IMAX and MX4D theaters and simulated skydiving, plus an “old Macau” theme that could drive traffic to that far corner of Cotai. Or Leong’s 10.6 hectare (26 acre) plot could become another piece of her exit package. 對梁安琪而言， 自2019年1月其企業和私人間的競爭對手何超瓊組成 聯盟，以掌控澳門博彩控股最大股東澳門旅遊娛樂股份有限公司後，其 命運仿似早已註定。當丈夫何鴻燊今年5月逝世、享年98歲時，其際遇再 清楚不過了。然而，梁安琪仍是澳博最有影響力的高層和澳門立法會上 博彩業界的當然代表，密切地影響澳博這昔日博彩業壟斷者的未來發 展。 在很多方面，梁安琪符合中國出境游研究所所長王立基所形容的 「年輕老人」，指近數十年辛勤工作以積累財富的中國人，在接近或踏 入退休生活時，他們有時間和金錢去旅行花費。 梁安琪將於3月步入花甲之年，她在廣州出生，曾是一位舞蹈老 師，在遇上年紀大她近40年的何鴻燊，並成為其四太後，她瞬間致富。除 了持有澳博8.6％的股權，使其成為企業最大的個人股東，以及澳娛的 6.9％股權外，梁氏在全球多地的房地產資產亦累計數以十億元。 澳博路氹綜合度假村項目上葡京正待政府批出開業許可，設有以 歐洲時尚大師Karl Lagerfeld和Donatella Versace為名及設計的酒店， 以及提供更多實惠選擇的零售商場，包括中國免稅品（集團）在澳門的 旗艦店及由新八佰伴營運的全澳最大的百貨商店。 梁安琪及其兒子、澳博董事何猷亨亦透過澳門主題公園渡假村股 份有限公司，在與上葡京一街之隔的位置發展酒店及娛樂綜合體葡京 人，投資金額達50億港元（6.45億美元）。雖然該項目未有主題公園，以 及暫時未設賭場，但以舊澳門為主題，承諾帶來IMAX影院和MX4D全感 觀影院、室內跳傘館等娛樂配套，可為路氹偏遠一帶引入人流。這佔地 10.6公頃（26英畝）的項目或是梁氏優退計劃的一部分。
