Manmohan Singh tops Newsweek's list of ten world leaders | The Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh, heads the chart of Newsweek Magazine's list of ten world leaders, who have won respect and is described as 'the leader other leaders love' despite India being placed at 78th in the list of 100 best countries. In an article titled, 'The Leader Other
Leaders Love', the magazine says "The economist-turned-politician Singh, engineered
the transition from stagnant socialism to a spectacular takeoff in the global
economy." "But it's Singh's unassuming personal style that really inspires awe
among his fellow global luminaries, who praise him for being modest, humble, and
incorruptible," the article in the magazine adds. "The soft-spoken Singh is the
model of what a political leader should be," the magazine quotes former International
Atomic Energy Agency director-general and Egyptian Presidential challenger Mohamed
ElBaradei as saying. Besides Dr Manmohan Singh, British Premier David Cameron,
French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, Brazilian President
Luiz Incio Lula da Silva and Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah bin Abdel Aziz al-Saud
figure in the top ten list. |
