PETALING JAYA: The country is expected to reach aged nation status in just over 20 years; however, more and more Malaysians are living past the age of 100.
As of June, there were 4,287 citizens aged 100 and above, with women making up more than half that number at 2,761; the number of centenarian men was 1,526. This reflects a rise in longevity that experts say mirrors a global trend.
