Muhammad Yunus

Recommended Posts

Nobel prize winning Bangladeshi banker to the poor Muhammad Yunus is 84 this and has just been sent to prison. According to the BBC he faces over 100 more charges in the near future. All those stressful court proceedings can't be good for one's health.

This could go into the Nobel prize thread.

Some Nobelists are famous beyond their prize and would be interesting future candidates. Yunus certainly fits into this category.

That's such a whiplash post next to this entire thread so far...even by the standards of your Asian politician comebacks!
