Samenvatting

At the 1st of January 2007 Ban Ki-moon was inaugurated as the new Secretary General of the United Nations. He had the reputation of being a modest and competent man. Critics call Ban Ki-moon the leader without a profile. In fact, if you ask anyone if he knows Ban Ki-moon, he will probably answer: Ban Ki-who?

'Ban Ki-who?' is my central question. In this research I try to find answers on who Ban Ki-moon is, but also on why this man with such a high profile job is so little covered by the media.
