Forbes: Arroyo is 4th most powerful woman, Rice tops list

NEW YORK -- Beleaguered Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has been ranked as the fourth most powerful woman in the world in the latest global ranking of feminine clout by Forbes magazine.
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice tops the list, beating out a host of presidents, celebrities, and chief executives.

The annual list, unveiled Thursday, was Forbes' second ranking of the world's 100 most powerful women and left Rice two-for-two, having topped the 2004 version as US national security adviser.

Arroyo jumped five places this year, behind newcomer Yulia Tymoshenko, the Ukranian prime minister who debuted at number three and Chinese Vice Premier Wu Yi, at number two for the second year in a row.

Elizabeth MacDonald, senior editor at Forbes, cited Rice for "reinvigorating the role of Secretary of State with a form of diplomatic activism that we haven't seen in a while."

Aw, c'mon...is that how extensive her influence is? Did she do a "Hello, Forbes?" too?

I can just imagine her saying "Yung dagdag...yung dagdag?" to whoever was tallying scores in Forbes.
