KUALA LUMPUR: When baby Wong Wai Jing was born in December 2008 - after a decade of being a frozen embryo - her birth was believed to be a miracle and a record of sorts.

Now, the 14 months infant and her 47-year old mother have been officially recognised by the Malaysia Book of Records for the phenomenal feat.

Wai Jing, a cute 11kg toddler, has been listed as the female offspring of the first embryo frozen for the longest duration while her mother, June Tan, has been listed for gestating the first embryo frozen for the longest duration.

A premature baby boy was delivered on board an AirAsia flight last night, 30 minutes after the aircraft left Bayan Lepas Airport in Penang.

The flight AK5606 was on its way to Kuching but had to reroute to the Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) in Sepang when a pregnant passenger told crew members she was in labour pains.

Liew Siaw Hsia, 31, gave birth through the normal delivery to a premature but healthy boy, who became the first born in an AirAsia aircraft.

The 35-year-old military officer, who wished to be known only as Hasmi, claimed that his baby boy has to suffer for the rest of his life because of the doctor’s arrogance and ignorance.

Hasmi said initially he was elated and overwhelmed with the arrival of his twin boys on Aug 27. “They were born under normal conditions and were healthy,” he said.

THE body of the two-month-old baby, suspected of being abused by his parents, has remained unclaimed and will be kept at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital mortuary for the time being.

Gombak police chief Assistant Commissioner Abdul Rahim Abdullah said this is because no one has come forward to claim the body of Muhamad Iman Mohd Sonel.
