Sabrina Ho Spotted at UN Youth Assembly

In May this year, Sabrina HO (何超盈) announced on Instagram that she had graduated with a doctorate, officially becoming ‘Dr. Ho’!

The eldest daughter of late casino mogul Stanley Ho (何鴻燊) and his fourth wife, she married Harvard graduate Thomas Xin (辛奇隆) in 2019, who is eight years her junior, and gave birth to a daughter, Audrey Xin (nicknamed ‘Egg’). Leading a low-profile life with few public appearances, it turns out that Sabrina has been quietly pursuing further education. Recently, she shared a short video of her attending a meeting at the United Nations headquarters in New York, where she engaged in discussions with representatives from various countries.

First Row Seat at UN Assembly

She had graduated earlier this year from New York University’s Steinhardt School with a PhD, accompanied by her husband Thomas. When her brother, Mario Ho’s (何猷君) esports company NIP went public on NASDAQ in the United States in late August, Sabrina also brought her daughter to lend support.

Sharing a short video on her Instagram Stories of herself at UN headquarters, she wrote, ‘watch it on live.’ The video shows a packed meeting room, with Sabrina seated in the front row of the meeting held to celebrate International Youth Day, an annual event commemorated by the United Nations on August 12.

Appointed as a strategic partner by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) as early as 2017, Sabrina became the first Chinese person to hold this position and also the youngest member. This marked her collaboration with the UN agency in the fields of education and culture, supporting innovative educational programs that create more employment, and entrepreneurship opportunities for youth. One of which was her 2020 initiative with UNESCO titled ‘YOU ARE NEXT: Resilience Through Art,’ an online discussion where she and renowned artists and prominent female entrepreneurs from across Asia discussed topics around women’s creativity, culture and technology, gender equality, and cultural and creative industries.
