G Date: Sunday, November 30, 2008, Super Women
I was doing my research on Communication Skills yesterday and I came across this article. I find it rather interesting so I decided to share it with everyone.

It is about the world oldest person who passed away on Wednesday, 26 November 2008. Found out another interesting fact is that out of the 86 oldest person in the world, 76 were women and 10 were men. Cool, it seems like women has a longer life-span than men. (It is not a sexist comment uh!) Yea and I decided to put down my Comm Skill for awhile and research on her. Most of the the supercentenarian were from America and Japan. The history of the oldest person living in the world goes up to 122 (Jeanne Calment, France) but she passed away in 1997. Yea so the current oldest person in the world is still a women and she is Maria de Jesus in Portugal. She is now 115 years and 81 days old.
It was indeed the most popular viewed article on yahoo which I thought so as well. Cool uh, wonder if a Singapore name will go up to supercentenarian list on Wiki.
