Cik Siti Aminah

Today I read an article in the Star about one Cik Siti Aminah in Kota Tinggi, Johore. This Malay woman married 99 husbands who died the next day. The number 100 husband to marry her survive. The husband who was an 'ulama' had no lust on him when he proposed and married her though he knew about her reputation of 99 husbands dead the next day. This story happened many centuries ago.....now this old Chinese woman knew about her story and she dreamed about her. She said that Cik Siti was sad and was guarded by 2 body guards......(because afraid she might cause havoc on men (?)) There might be something to the story....perhaps Cik Siti had the power to seal men's faith in her hands, something like the Black Widow mated her mate then killed her lover. There is a tomb erected in her honour in Kota Tinggi. When I was in Mersing, I didnt hear about the story of Cik Siti Aminah. Maybe somebody should write about her and how she married 100 husbands(99 died tomorrow after marriage)
