    Turkish PM Erdogan drops out of Forbes list of world's most powerful people

    13:12 06/12/2012 » SOCIETY


    Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan is no longer on the Forbes
    magazine's annual list of `The World's Most Powerful People,' Turkish
    news agency Dogan reported.

    Erdogan occupied the 48th place in the list last year. Venezuelan
    President Hugo Chavez was ranked 48th in this year's Forbes list of
    the most powerful people.

    The annual list selected what Forbes said were the world's 71
    most-powerful people from among the roughly 7.1 billion global
    populace, based on factors ranging from wealth to global influence.

    Obama was joined in the top 10 by German Chancellor Angela Merkel,
    Russian President Vladimir Putin, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz al Saud
    of Saudi Arabia and British Prime Minister David Cameron.

    The list's highest-ranked businessman was Microsoft co-founder Bill
    Gates at No. 4. U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and
    European Central Bank President Mario Draghi, both public officials,
    also made the top 10.
