    Burmese perennial immortals lister Gen. Thura U Tin Oo visited again, video from some days ago:

    Senile, a victim of elder abuse, clearly very frail but doing well for someone who had a massive stroke six years ago and was on oxygen with covid last year.

    Recipient of the 1st July Medal and made public appearances until last year. Oldest 1st July Medal recipient is the immortal Lu Yuanjiu.

    As Lu Yuanjiu died today, the oldest 1st of July Medal recipients are now:

    1. Guo Ruixiang (郭瑞祥) 102-year-old minor cadre who fought in WWII and the second phase of the Chinese Civil War and during the Korean War held some higher position in the army. Has lived at a cadre care home since 1982. 

    2. Zhou Yongkai (周永开) 95-year-old minor cadre who is most known for his large donations.

    3. Wang Zhanshan (王占山) 93-year-old Korean War hero who suffered 38 bullet wounds in the Battle of Kumsong. Very frail. Also fought in the second phase of the Chinese Civil War and the Sino-Vietnamese War.

    None of the younger ones are Korean War vets as far as I know.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_living_state_leaders

    There's such a drought that everyone in this list is now 89 years old or older. Ever since I followed this list, that never even remotely happened before.

    I could split the list into a few categories:

     

    Ultra-frails, mystery how they're still alive, coffinteases and those currently dying: Khamtai Siphandone (massive stroke in 2016, other health problems), Jimmy Carter, Guillermo Rodriguez Lara (looked decaying last year), Giorgio Napolitano, Arnaldo Forlani (bedbound some time ago), Kim Yong-nam, Zhu Rongji (parkinson's and other illnesses, looked like a corpse years ago), Orville Turnquest (looked very frail ages ago), Jamshid bin Abdullah ("spending his last days" in 2020 or something similar?), Violeta Chamorro (osteoporosis, brain tumors, endstage dementia, massive stroke a few years ago), Selim Hoss, Isabel Peron, Jean-Jacques Honorat, Chavalit Yongchaiyudh (massive health history), Queen Sirikit, Manmohan Singh, Bill Hayden, HD Deve Gowda, Than Shwe

     

    Frail, but not ultrafrail: Thanin Kraivichien (it's been a while since his last public appearance. Seems to pop up sometimes to attend an event), Péter Boross, Édouard Balladur, Alfred Moisiu, Milan Panic, Ahmed Osman, Jose Sarney (pleural effusion or something similar a few years ago, recovered somewhat), Ivy Dumont, Choe Yong-rim, Cesar Virata (stroke, covid and pneumonia a few years ago), Lamberto Dini, George Vassiliou (looked quite frail in February), Raul Castro, Javier Valle Riestra, Anand Panyarachun, Vytautas Landsbergis (hospitalised atleast 5 times in recent years with infections), Fouad Mebazaa, Suchinda Kraprayoon, Arnold Koller, Jean Chrétien, Édith Cresson, Monica Dacon (described as very tired in 2014), Albert II, Abdul Rauf al-Kasm

     

    Have been very ill in the past...

    Fully recovered: Tomiichi Murayama, Mahathir Mohamad, Nikolai Ryzhkov (massive heart attack ca. 1990), Cleopa Msuya (very ill in 2013), Muhammad Jamiruddin Sircar (stroke in 2019, seems to have made a full recovery), A. Q. M. Badruddoza Chowdhury, Ugo Mifsud Bonnici, Mohamed Ennaceur ("in poor health" in 2019, bounced back), Pedro Pires (massive internal bleeding ca. 2014) 

    Not sure how they're doing now: Abdoulaye Wade (goes to France for medical treatment once in a while), Raif Dizdarević (last time I heard, he was doing fine), Ion Iliescu, Dries Van Agt, Fernando Henrique Cardoso (broken hip or something similar a year or two ago?), Hüsamettin Cindoruk (kidney failure a few months ago), Akihito (ill now and then, but overall seems to be doing fine), Eddie Fenech Adami

     

    Doing fine: Ali Hassan Mwinyi, Valdas Adamkus, Arnold Rüütel, Arthur Foulkes, Gombojavyn Ochirbat, Vigdís Finnbogadóttir, Marguerite Pindling, Mark Eyskens (described as "mastering the art of aging well" in April), Basdeo Panday, Dumaagiin Sodnom, Rubén Darío Paredes (obese but seems to be doing fine), Mátyás Szűrös, Rudolf Schuster, J. Y. Pillay, Henri Konan Bédié, Heng Samrin

     

    Arguable (rumored ill but seems to be doing fine OR simply makes public appearances very rarely): Sam Nujoma, Kesang Choden, Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, Mabandla Dlamini, William Deane, Philip Greaves, Elliott Belgrave, Khieu Samphan (wants to get out of jail), Michael Hardie Boys (not seen in ages), Edmund Lawrence, Gavril Dejeu, Colville Young, Rachid Sfar, Michel Aoun (allegedly suffers from dementia, other ailments), Abel Pacheco, Édouard Frank, John Malecela, Nicola Mancino, Ali Haroun

     

    Boring, no images in the last 5 years: Lee Hyun-jae, Efraín Goldenberg, Pié Masumbuko, Tang Fei, Kim Suk-soo, Lee Hong-koo, 

     

    Could even be dead: Mohammad Hasan Sharq, Cesar Yanes Urias, Severino Tura and the two other red names

    Cardinal Alexandre do Nascimento, the oldest living cardinal celebrated 40 years as cardinal last week:

    alexandrenascimento.png.0452db01a337504c0fc249811e7091a0.png

    98 in two weeks.

    Alexandre do Nascimento rumored dead late last month. Instead he was "spending a peaceful Sunday with his family" 

     

     

    Edit - 29th of June - Alexandre do Nascimento again dead on facebook. Post is from 26 hours ago, probably another hoax but let's see...

    Someone playing silly buggers or is I wonder he ill and someone with knowledge letting slip to someone he's on the way out and that person jumped the gun (so to speak)

    People are saying he's still quite active but he doesn't really look amazing in this image from April:

    lazenby.thumb.jpg.fd7f198db50674397106018828a8b741.jpg

    I think it's very possible this could be another from that Italian celebrity death rumor guy.

    It all seems to have gone very quiet around here. Unless of course a whole heap of obscure picks have carked it, but you scamps have not informed me! I will be doing my quarterly google search of all the names at the end of the month, but in the meantime please be a dear and check you own teams. 

    Emlain Kabua who died in April would've been a hit for me, but seems she never got an obituary of any kind despite having designed her country's flag, being the widow of the founding president and the mother of the incumbent president. Damn you, Marshall Islands Journal!

     

    Albert Ndele (picked by When The) is also dead, died already on April 1st. Can't find if his death was mentioned here but he did get some death mentions.

    Perennially ill Finnish schlager singer Kristian "Kisu" Jernström diagnosed with "agressive submucosal stomach cancer", but (somehow) doesn't sound too serious. He survived laryngeal cancer a few years ago, has a congenital pancreatic anomaly, others ailments (and was a heavy drinker in the past)

    Kisu Jernström was going to have a surgery earlier this year, but instead he had sepsis and a peptic ulcer. Now his cancer has spread and he'll apparently have a massive surgery today but hopes he'll be alive next month.
