Who do you think influence China the most in 2009?
Barack Obama?
Sino-US relations are among the most important bilateral relations in the world today. Obama's China policy is a combination of carrot and stick: from his accusation about China's fixed currency rate with the US dollar to his efforts to seek cooperation with China on carbon emission reduction and anti-terrorism strategy. Chinese mainland media focused particularly on Obama's decision to sell weapons to Taiwan on the eve of his acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Yukio Hatoyama?
The Democratic Party of Japan leader Yukio Hatoyama became Japan's new prime minister on September 19.
China-Japan relations have demonstrated a positive new beginning since Hatoyama took over office.
Hatoyama is welcomed by China for not visiting the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo and and acknowledgement of Japan's invasion of China during the Second World War, a positive start to removing a long-standing irritant in bilateral ties。
Hatoyama's concept of "the East Asia Community" is the common goal he offered Asia-Pacific leaders
Kim Jong-il?
Starting in 2008, Kim Jong-il has reportedly been suffering from severe health problems and has made few public appearances. South Korean media have suggested Kim is grooming his son Kim Jong-chul as successor, while Western media have suggested the possibility of his youngest son Kim Jong-un
North Korea's nuclear development has long been a concern in the international community.
Kim Jong-il announced in April 2009 that Pyongyang would pull out of the six-party talks involving China and five other nations. One month later, North Korea conducted its second nuclear test.
