Malaysian man, 110, to marry 82-yr-old woman who agreed to be his bride

A man in Malaysia who is 110 years old is set to marry again after an 82-year-old woman agreed to become his bride.

According to Utusan Malaysia, Ahmad Mohamad Isa, who has 20 grandchildren and 40 great-grandchildren, had revealed that he wanted company and a wife to take care of him.

The article caught the attention of Sanah Ahmad, a widow of 30 years and mother of nine, who in turn told her children she was willing to do so, and for them to contact Ahmad's family to make arrangements.

"It doesn't matter who she is, as long as she can cook for me," the Telegraph quoted Ahmad as telling the paper Sunday.

"It is lonely to live alone and I am afraid to sleep alone. If I have a wife she can take care of me," the centenarian, who has five previous marriages and suffers mild hearing and vision problems, added.

Four of his wives have died and he divorced the fifth.

Sanah told the paper that she was attracted to Ahmad as he bears a striking resemblance to her late husband and both men shared the same name.
