Dr M will turn 93 on 10 July.
"His election victory means he's older than the two previous serving politicians who Guinness World Records has recognised as holding the title," they said in the article.
In case you were wondering, the previous record holders were Saudi Arabian rulers King Fahd bin Abdul Aziz (who passed away at the age of 84) and King Abdullah Ibn Abdul Aziz (he was 90 when he passed away).First day on the job... once again. pic.twitter.com/Oxe3E8OEuU— Dr Mahathir Mohamad (@chedetofficial) May 11, 2018
