Who grabbed the headlines in Asia in 2012? What Asia-related people made waves? Who, for better or worse, had the biggest impact during the past calendar year?
We want you to tell us please vote below in 2012's version of our (unscientific and unofficial) reader poll for Asia's Person of the Year.
For 2012 we have selected 12 nominees from all walks of life, and you can read their descriptions below. Now, we are well aware that Asia is a huge place, filled with billions of people. Undoubtedly many deserving names failed to make this list (including newly anointed leaders like Xi Jinping, Shinzo Abe and Park Geun-hye we figured we'd check back in on them next December).
This is why you are welcome to write-in your own candidates, as well. We encourage you to do so.
Last year's runaway winner, Aung San Suu Kyi, is nominated once again this year. Can she repeat? It's up to you. Place your vote below!
NOTE: You may vote once a day. IP addresses will be tracked in an attempt to ensure fairness. Ballot stuffing will not be tolerated.
