Andrew Lo, who was a top aide of former Hong Kong leader Tung Chee-hwa, has died. He was 66.

Tung said he was saddened by the death.

Lo made headlines in the year 2000 when he allegedly asked Hong Kong University pollster Robert Chung to stop conducting surveys on the popularity of Tung.

Lo eventually resigned from the post of special assistant at the CE's Office.

He later became the deputy secretary of the China Energy Fund Committee, which has been in the news recently as its deputy chairman, Patrick Ho, was indicted in the US on bribery charges.
