Where is Africa in the list? Is our situation this grave?

Ni Barack Obama - no.1.
Aaah sorry, kumbe ni Obama ni African-American (American-African): kipi kinatangulia, rangi au uraia? wataalam watatueleza.
Hata hivyo, sishabikii list hiyo ya "most poweful people" kwani sijui vigezo vilivyotumika. Mtoa mada ungetueleza ni vigezo vipi vilitumika kuwapanga watu hao kwa mpangilio huo kwa kadiri ya utafiti uliofanywa. Vigezo ndiyo dira ya mjadala.

Hofstede, I wuld radher think this is a reflection of persons in the news,western to be exact, but I dont see the common denominator for this collection of human beings.
Is it wealth, is it influence,or is it destruction ability or what?

 

[Maarifa]

Can you be specific where their powers are based. politics, wealth, religious, what rationale have made to conculde the list? Anyway not a bad start.

Nafikiri huyu lazima ni Muafrika, West Africa. Lakini sijui ni powerful kivipi. Nafikiri ni Vizuri tukijua creteria zilizotumika.
