Tower1 93 Posted April 2, 2019 Hau pei Tsun had an emergency hospitalization today https://news.sina.cn/gn/2019-04-02/detail-ihsxncvh7517455.d.html?from=wap Now his 100th birthday may be in question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,830 Posted April 14, 2019 Hau Pei-tsun still in ICU after his situation was discovered to be more serious than they initially thought (half body paralysed!). Grand Duke Jean of Luxembourg has been hospitalised with pulmonary infection... finally circling the drain? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,946 Posted April 14, 2019 About the Grand Duke, I'm getting a Havelange vibe here. Death could still be 2-3 years away but with several more lung-related hospitalizations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,830 Posted April 22, 2019 Unfortunately no one has chosen Jean of Luxembourg and Biblio who picked him during the ninth round has changed pick, so nobody will score this time. Of course, he has to be dead before saying this, but it is rather imminent... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,830 Posted April 22, 2019 So, a brief summary of leaders who are now in failing health and whose demise might not be so far: 1)Hau Pei-tsun: hospitalized in ICU since April the 1st after suffering a not specified "medical emergency". Reported to be half paralysed. 2)Prem Tinsulanonda: out and about, but always on oxygen and often using wheelchair. Multiple recent hospitalizations. 3)Le Duc Anh: hospitalized at 108 Military Hospital since February 2018. His son is posting a lot on FB about his father, so, maybe.... 4)Jean of Luxemborg: hospitalized with pulmonary infection, condition greatly deteriorated. Dead cert. 5)Lee Teng-hui: has spent more than three months in hospital after suffering fall & cerebral hemorrhage. Now frail and unable to speak. 6)Robert Mugabe: currently hospitalized in Singapore. 7)Daniel arap Moi: unable to receive mourners for the death of his son because of ill health. Recently hospitalized. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
