While the 87-year-old is yet to be released from Hong Kong's Adventist Hospital, Pansy Ho Chiu-king said the casino mogul had embarked on a regime of cycling and eating to make up for the weight he had lost since he was taken to hospital early last month.

Pansy Ho, who is managing director of the family holding company Shun Tak Holdings, also said on Friday that her father had made an '80 per cent recovery'.

But she said the family did not know when he would be released from hospital.

The tycoon is believed to have had brain surgery to remove a blood clot after a fall at home.
