Biography

Wook Kundor was born in Terengganu, Malaysia. She has been married 22 times[1]. Her current marriage was Muhammad Musa, who is 70 years her junior[2]. Muhammad Musa said that, initially, he felt sympathy for his bride Wook Kundor because she was old and alone. But, over time, respect and friendship turned to love. Kundor's only asset is her deep religious knowledge, says Mr. Musa. It's his first marriage and her twenty-first. However, Musa was in drug rehabilitation in Kuala Lumpur, and Kundor sought a new marriage, as she feared he may run off with someone younger, and that she needs someone to keep her company, saying "I realise that I am an aged woman. I don't have the body, nor am I a young woman who can attract anyone. I'm not searching for a man as handsome as our Prime Minister, but someone to accompany in my twilight years"[3].

In February 2016, 113 year old Kundor spoke to the press speaking of her desire to see her husband come home after he was sent to prison[4].

Wook Kundor passed away 7 June 2016 in Bukit Tok Bat Village, Kuala Berang Terengganu, Malaysia at the claimed age of 114 years.
