What unlikely item is a 107 year old woman from Malaysia looking for?
Chinese national Wang Guiying has waited a lifetime to find the man of her dreams! After growing up seeing her uncles and other men beat their wives, Wang, now 107 years old, swore off marriage. Women, you see, didn’t have many rights at the time and were very low on the social ladder. As time marched on, however, Wang has seen women’s lots change; this go-getter’s now on the prowl for a man. “I’m already 107 and I still haven’t got married,” the Chongqing Commercial Times quoted her saying. “What will happen if I don’t hurry up and find a husband?” Local officials seem more than happy to help Wang search for a 100-year-old groom. They suggest her family scour homes for the elderly in search of Mr. Right. Good luck, Wang! Sources: http://www.wowowow.
Wok Kundor is the Elizabeth Taylor of Malaysia. The 107-year-old woman is looking to marry again … for the 23rd time! Wok Kundor has been happily married for four years to her husband, a man 70 years her junior. But since he left their village in northern Terengganu state for a drug rehabilitation program in the capital, Kuala Lumpur, Wok has had a gnawing feeling. “She said that she has been feeling insecure lately and she needs to find out whether he still loves her or not,” said R.S.N. Murali, a reporter for The Star. The English-language Malaysian daily was among several local media outlets reporting on the lifelong romantic. “She is worried he might not come back after his program and find himself a younger wife,” Murali said. If so, Wok has her eyes set on a 50-year-old man, but hopes it does not come to that. Sources: http://www.neatorama.
