Ho Ching slips to No. 30
-
Oct 7, 2010 - Straits Times
TEMASEK Holdings CEO Ho Ching has dropped 25 places from No. 5 in last year's Forbes Magazine's World's Most Powerful Women list to 30th place this year.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who topped the list last year, also fell to 4th spot this year, while US first lady Michelle Obama, who ranked No. 40, is now the Most Powerful Woman.
This is likely due to Forbes changing the way it ranks women, basing this year's list less on wealth and power and more on creative input and entrepreneurship. It also grouped women into various categories, such as politics, business, and lifestyle.
In Forbes' 2010 ranking of the world's 100 most influential women, Ms Ho, wife of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, came in 10th in the Business category.
Forbes said on its website that 'speculation remained as to whether Ho would remain CEO', after Temasek Holdings 'hired and promoted several high-level executives to support her.'
It also implied that the departure of Charles Goodyear, who had initially been brought in to succeed Ms Ho in 2009, had an effect on this year's ranking.
Kraft Foods Chief Executive Irene Rosenfeld, who led a hostile US$18 billion takeover of Britain's Cadbury, came in second, followed by talk show host and media mogul Oprah Winfrey, who is ending 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' next year after 25 years to launch her cable network OWN.

Mrs Obama has more to spend.

I thought slipped to No.30 in FHM ranking.
-
what is the Prime Minister's husband doing in a woman's list?
he should be top in the "world's ugliest man in a same sex marriage" category
-
Less emphasis on "wealth and power but more on creative input and entrepeneurship".
That's why dropped in rankings.
-
Similarly, a local university also dropped in rankings drastically recently due to changes in ranking criteria.
-
Perhaps she lost so much during the subprime crisis, those losses materialized last year that's why her ranking dropped. How much do you need to lose to drop from No.5 to No.30?
They are going to increased the CPF minimum sum again.
Ooops, they already done that.

nothing wrong if FHM shoots hoching right? its a women mag so she no need to be model also can appear. FHM should rethink their strategy at times.
unlike thos photos you see the model face blend retoiuch photo shoot until creamy smmoth like legolas in LOTR. but the remainder body got lots of 5cents 10cents. then some photo shop until like a piece of art but the models features you see is cannot make it 1. then their style alway sthe same like they save the settiongs everytime just call out the setting to edit new photos maybe just twea a little here and ther only. thenn got some only take cosplay photos cosplayer cosplayers tons opf cosplayers during photoshoot got lots of GWC hagning aroundhim worship him like god all bunch of swaku ppl. whithout the ciosplayers colorful clothings you ask the smae guy shoot a car his photos looks like taken from a PNS. then his face i see already really i blame his marler and father why giv birtht to a son so ugly?
