Seems rather spurious... According to the 23 December 1999 The Straits Times article "A century old in new millennium" by Tan Suan Ann, Hsu "cannot even remember her exact birthday." I'm not able to access the 2007 article that's currently being used as a citation for her supposed DOB, but I doubt anyone 8 years later would have been able to reliably provide an exact DOB -- and it would be equally doubtful if the info came from Hsu herself, since she couldn't remember 8 years ago! All told, I think it might be prudent to further emphasise the fact that her birthdate, as the opening section concedes, has never been independently verified.
