Update on Yu Miu-Lin, Hong Kong actress, immortal who spent a lot of time on life support with a blood disease and pulmonary fibrosis last year, three days ago:

She's suffering from multiple chronic diseases, apparently coughs a lot and is in poor health, "her feet are weak" and she's wheelchairbound. But "better than last year" or something.

Often supported Amjad Ali Khan (1945-), Birju Maharaj (1938-2022), Hariprasad Chaurasia (1938-) and Shivkumar Sharma (1938-) on stage. A prodigy, tabla master Zakir Hussain (1951-) once called him "one of the 15 good tabla players in the world"

 

According to one source, he was hospitalised on June 20th and needed breathing support. With ECMO starting from 2nd of July, developed more lung conditions and renal failure.

Czech actor Josef Abrhám has died at 82:

https://www.novinky.cz/kultura/clanek/zemrel-josef-abrham-40397243

 

He was married to "Cinderella" Libuse Safrankova who died last year. Possibly, a few people picked up bad health news back then, because he is a pick in the Death By Numbers pool at least.

Joaquin C. Arriola, ancient Guamanian politician, speaker of the Guam Legislature 1969-1971 dead at 96.

 

Are the following Oceanian personalities still alive?

 

Mosese Bogisa (born 27 April 1922) Fijian first-class cricketer, marked living on wikipedia. Couldn't find anything even remotely new about him on the internet.

Kallu Dhani Ram (born 6 July 1923) Fiji trade unionist also involved in politics. Was alive in 2016, could've died since?

Emlain Kabua (born February 1928) 1st First Lady of Marshall Islands 1979-1996. Also designed the flag of the island country. I expect her death would've been mentioned somewhere, was alive in 2020.

Dennis Young (born 1936) UK-born former acting Gov-Gen of Papua New Guinea.

Bogisa is likely deceased.

Dhani Ram and Kabua should be living.

Sir Dennis Young died in March 2008 from a heart attack as per this website.
