The world's richest man and Microsoft chairman Bill Gates is probably the most admired person on the planet, followed closely by US President Barack Obama, Russian President Vladimir Putin, Pope Francis and Indian cricket player Sachin Tendulkar, the London Times reports, citing a poll.
Gates scored highly in all the 12 countries where YouGov conducted polling and was the most used in China. Putin's popularity among Russians helped him secure third put on the list, the newspaper reported.
YouGov surveyed 14,000 people in the U.K., France, Germany, Russia, the U.S., Australia, Pakistan, Indonesia, India, China, Egypt, Nigeria and Brazil in the poll conducted for the Times, based on the newspaper.
