The word "cheung" is not standard in written English.
It may be used as a proper noun, such as a surname or place name, but not in general vocabulary.
Example: "Mr. Cheung is the new manager of the department."
Alternatives: "Cheung family" or "Cheung Street."
The usual suspects – har gau, curry buns, bean curd rolls, roast pork puffs, cheung fung – all put in an appearance, but they stand out here for their delicacy and the care taken in their preparation, as do the daily specials, from jellyfish salad to deep-fried soft-shell crab.
Robert Goldstein, Las Vegas Sands' former head of global gambling operations and now Adelson's No 2, told the court the Reuters report and "the other stuff" had prompted them to stop "doing business" with Cheung.
Adelson denied that the company had business ties to the alleged triad leader – "We were not doing business with Cheung Chi Tai," he told the court – directly contradicting the evidence of his own deputy on the witness stand.
Las Vegas Sands finally broke with Cheung in 2010 following a Reuters report, based on the work of the IRP, identifying his triad links.
"We had no direct relationship with Cheung Chi Tai," Adelson testified.
In court, Adelson steadfastly maintained that Cheung was merely a gambler and of no great significance to the company.
Cheung is named as the guarantor in the documents, headed "Venetian Macau Limited Junket Credit Agreement".
Two years later, another Sands internal document said that Cheung was admitted to the casino's exclusive Chairman's Club, which normally comes with a personal letter from Adelson.
Lord knows what he would have done with Goldie Cheung if she hadn't bailed before the finals in 2011.
The report said that Cheung was named in a criminal trial in Hong Kong as "the person in charge" of one of the VIP rooms at the Sands Macau.
