China’s oldest person, Alimihan Seyiti, has died at the age of 135 in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, local authorities have reported. Seyiti was born on June 25, 1886. She hailed from Komuxerik township of Shule County in Kashgar Prefecture. In 2013, she topped the list of China's oldest living persons issued by the China Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics. She led a very simple and regular daily life until her death. She liked eating on time and enjoyed basking in the sun in her yard. Komuxerik is known as a "longevity town," with many elderly aged above 90. The improvement of health services has partly contributed to their longevity. The local government has provided contracted doctor service, free annual physical checks, and monthly advanced age subsidies for the elderly aged above 60, the report said.
