Moved here from the article:

The special thing in Vanhanen is, that he doesn't speak Swedish which is one of the two national languages of Finland.

Anyone got some proof of this? -- Jniemenmaa 19:10 26 Jun 2003 (UTC)

In the last Nordic council meeting he answered all the questions of the press in Swedish. The Hufvudstadsbladet [www.hbl.fi] repoter described his Swedish in a positive manner. So I assume his Swedish is good enough. -- Caid Raspa

And even if it was so, there wouldn't be anything "special" about it. --Jaakko Sivonen 20:02, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

When going to Matti Vanhanen's webpage, take special care that the URL ends in .net. It has been lately mentioned in the Finnish press that http://mattivanhanen.com (note the TLD) is a porn site. Is there anything the Finnish government can do about this? — JIP | Talk 11:09, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Hehe, I hear carp give up their lives at the mention of Matti's name, they can sense bad leadership... Conan is so funny --203.59.204.141 05:20, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

Doesn't anyone have a normal picture of this guy floating around? -Yupik 08:22, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

It looks like he's pissed off with the text -Clapaucius 00:10, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Susan Kuronen

I think we should mentioned Susan Kuronen. She appears to be linked well enough with the PM that it deserves a mention. This link may be helpful. I assume it's a Finnish tabloid that the PM doesn't like but IMHO it still merits inclusion [1] Nil Einne 13:43, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] wasn't it berlusconi?

the current article states that jaques chirac claimed Vanhanen was the sexiest man in europe, i hacve a distinct memory that the person to utter those accolades was the italian premier Berlusconi, ... I might be wrong... -- cimon —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.112.45.229 (talk) 08:50, 19 March 2007 (UTC).
