All World Leaders, with a few exceptions, to attend the AKIC 2011 Awards Banquet.

Queen Elizabeth II, U.S. President Barack Obama, Canadian Prime Minister Steven Harper, Swedish Bikini Team Captain Britt Salming, and Pope Benedict XVI are among the great world leaders who win attend the AKIC 2011 Awards Banquet to be held at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion of Gambay's Pub in the 1912 Bar District of Wuxi, China on the evening of December 30th.

They, along with the million others attending the banquet, will be witness to the announcement of the AKIC's 2011 Wuxi Expat of the year, considered to be the most prestigious award given to human achievement in the world at this or any other moment of history.

The only world leaders not attending will be Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, the Iranian leader what-his-name, and the new leader of North Korea Kim Ill Un.

2010 Wuxi Expat of the year Tony Kaulins will attend, but he has requested that he not be made to sit anywhere near President Barack Obama who he says is an emperor without clothes.
