Jan 14, 2014 By eChinacities.com

British pollsters YouGov released the results of a poll they took titled “World’s Most Admired Figures.” Bill Gates took first spot, President Obama took second and Vladmir Putin took third place. Xi Jinping ranked in at 6th while his wife took the 28th spot and Li Kashing, the Hong Kong business magnate, came in at 11.

Well, well done Xi Jinping.

Look at the actual statistics and answers people gave. The only reason he ranked sixth is because he ranked so high in China (second by a LONG way to Bill Gates). Nowhere else even voted for him. Sachin Tendulkar ranked fifth! For those of you who don't know, he's an Indian cricketer and he only ranked fifth because everyone in India voted for him. What is the point of this pole? It has no real value or use. World's most admired list? It is a pole representative of each country, not the whole world.

Not to sure how they calculated this. A couple of the overall top 10 only feature in their individual country's poll, and Xi Jinping didn't even top China's poll. I'm a bit surprised to see Michael Jordan in China's top 10 haha. This is the link to the full poll. http://yougov.co.uk/news/2014/01/11/infographic-bill-gates-most-admired-world/
