Talk:Carlos Ghosn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"and also got a phD in intituto superior tecnico" -- um, what? this almost sounds like nonsensical vandalism. ima delete it, but maybe someone can come along and make it sound less like gibberish and re-ionsert. barnacle 19:30, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
Why this pronunciation of Ghosn ("Ghosson")? it used to say GOHN. Voice of America pronounciation guide is "G-OWN" (at www.voa.gov). kd

I got a problem, at the begin it is written he "is a Brazilian businessman", so you think ... ey, he is brazilian ! Well then you learn, "he is a French citizen" ! Problem is that both are wrong. He is [1]. See this french article on it clearly stating he is holding both passport. FYI, French citizen can hold double nationality with only limited countries (which includes brasil). This enable people to keep their roots event when becoming French (lots of Portugese in France do so for instance).
The point is even if he holds double nationality, he is known worldwide for beeing "french" even if his roots are lebanon (cf. the Japan article on this).
Shall we say : "is a French and Brazilian businessman" (which is wrong, as in Business he is never seen as brazilian (at least outside of Brazil or Brazil influence zone). Or "is a French businessman born in Brazil" (Which is better but not 100% perfect). Any better proposition for relecting these facts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.113.57.163 (talk) 18:38, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- He may have been born there, but moved back to Lebanon (his parents' country of origin) a few years later. Educated in France, living there for 35 years, I think it's safe to say that he's French. What do you think he'd say if you asked him ? --81.51.209.30 (talk) 07:23, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
