A Malaysian man hopes finally to find wedded bliss after 52 failed marriages, returning to his first wife for his latest nuptials.
Kamarudin Mohammed, 72, first married Khadijah Udin, 74, nearly five decades ago.
After they split up, he went through another 51 marriages and 50 divorces, his last wife dying of cancer.
They ranged in length from two days to 20 years, and included one Englishwoman.
At the home of his new bride in Kampung Pias, he told the New Straits Times newspaper: ``I am not a playboy.
``I just love seeing beautiful women.
``If I like a girl, I'll ask for her hand in marriage. I don't like flings.
``I also don't believe in marrying more than one woman at a time.''
His seven children include a daughter from his first marriage.
Divorce is simple in Malaysia's Muslim majority community, since a husband can end his marriage by telling his wife ``I divorce you'' three times.
A former police officer, Mr Mohammed went on to work for a number of multinational companies before retirement.

``I just moved from one job to another if there were better offers.
``There have been so many jobs, maybe as many as my marriages.''
His new wife said he had promised to look after her until the end of their lives, and that she had high hopes for the future.
``He said he did not want to continue his habit of marrying repeatedly,'' she said.
