Time’s list of 100 most influential people…where’s PhD.Hun Sen?

The list, now in its ninth year, recognises the activism, innovation and achievement of the world’s most influential individuals.

As Time managing editor Richard Stengel has said of the list in the past, “The Time 100 is not a list of the most powerful people in the world, it’s not a list of the smartest people in the world, it’s a list of the most influential people in the world.

“They’re scientists, they’re thinkers, they’re philosophers, they’re leaders, they’re icons, they’re artists, they’re visionaries.

“People who are using their ideas, their visions, their actions to transform the world and have an effect on a multitude of people.”
