World's Shortest Couple

Of late, the people from the central kingdom have been flooding the Guinness World Records with applications for inclusion into the list of highest, shortest, longest, etc. With their insatiation to be recognized as unique, and with more than 1 billion people in mainland China, sooner or later the Guinness World Record book will have to be rewritten in Chinese language.

Now, here is the latest application to Guiness World Record for “shortest couple to get married". Chen Guilan (the bride) is 0.7 m (2.3 ft) tall. Li Tangyong (the groom) is 1.1 m (3.6 ft) tall. They were married in Shunde, Guangdong Province, China on Thursday, Sept. 27, 2007. Read HERE for further details.

Maybe China as a country should also apply to the Guinness World Record for inclusion as “the country that continued to back the military government of Burma”.
