Nina Wang, Asia's richest woman, dies

Latest Updated by 2007-04-05 10:22:00

Nina Wang, believed to be the richest woman in Asia, has died, leaving unanswered questions over the estimated $4.2 billion fortune she left behind.

Wang, known for her signature pigtails and nicknamed "little sweetie" by the local media, has died of an unspecified illness after reports she had been battling cancer.

Wang emerged victorious from a long and bruising court battle over her late husband's estate.

Despite a fortune estimated at more than four billion US dollars, her frugality was widely documented by Hong Kong media, she was reputed to have kept her monthly expenditure below 3,000 Hong Kong dollars (385 US).

Forbes magazine last year estimated her personal fortune at 4.2 billion US dollars, 154th in their ranking of the world's richest people.
