Centenarian find love
BEIJING (Reuters) – A 107-year-old Chinese woman who was afraid to marry when she was young has decided to look for her first husband and hopes to find a fellow centenarian so they will have something to talk about, a Chinese paper reported.

Wang Guiying is worried she is becoming a burden to her ageing nieces and nephews since breaking her leg when she was 102 and had to stop doing chores like washing her clothes.

"I'm already 107 and I still haven't got married," the Chongqing Commercial Times quoted her saying. "What will happen if I don't hurry up and find a husband?"

Born in southern Guizhou province the child of a salt merchant, Wang grew up watching her uncles and other men scold and beat their wives and often found her aunt crying in the woodshed after an attack, the paper said.

"All the married people around there lived like that. Getting married was too frightening," she said of an era when Chinese women had few rights and low social standing.

Many also had their feet bound in an excruciating process aimed at making them look more dainty and marriageable.

After Wang's father, mother and older sister died, she still shied away from marriage. Instead she moved to the countryside and survived as a farmer until she was 74 years old and no longer strong enough to work in the fields, the report said.

Her nephew in the booming city of Chongqing then took Wang in, but she is worried he and her other nephews and nieces are too old to take care of her now even the youngest is 60.

"My nephews and nieces are getting older and their children are already tied up with their own families and I am becoming more and more of a burden," she said.

Local officials have said they are happy to help Wang search for a 100-year old groom, and suggested her family get in touch with old people's homes to find candidates, the paper said.

Marketing Strategy ?
Okay, this is little something I found out about..

As you know I have a fairly short ringtone, meaning the phone call gets cut off when anyone call me; making it seems like I hang off your call alaways. Remember ? I always thought it was due to my short ringing tone as iPhone doesnt allows custom ringtone. Well, guess what? I managed to backdoor iPhone and found a way around it, yeah, which means, I can have custom ringtone, CHEERS!

The story continues..

So I was doing up some cutting and editing to the musics I wanted for my ringtone, (note: for compatibility, iPhone allows only ringtone 35sec and less, then it loops) got it synchronize and lo n behold~ custom ringtones in my iPhone.
And so... I checked the phone, calling from my home to see if the dialing tone lengthened. To my DISMAY, nothing has changed! Now, eliminating the possible problems, I guess the issue lies with my service provider.

The story continues..

And so I told my mum about it and she suggested it could probably be due to Singtel's strategy, making user return call to whoever miss called them. Well, of course it sounds silly at first, but just awhile ago I verified by calling Singtel.
I told the customer service officer(CSO) the situation; It almost seems to the CSO that situation encounter was not at all unexpected. Am I right to assume that this short dialing tone problem is actually very common and that many people have already called to check on it? And so, she told me about how to type in a code and sending a request to extend the dialing tone. And for my dear readers info, this is it. **61*1389*11*30#

Tested, worked.
So back to what my mum said, was this really one of Singtel's Strategy ? I dont know, but its a feasible theory.
