G20 Photo Story: Hu Jintao and Chinese National Flag

Small national flag makers are used to mark mark the position for all leaders of the G20 nations group photo at the G20 Summit in Los Cabos, Mexico. Some leaders just are standing on his country's flag, but Hu not.

After the group photo, President Hu Jintao picks off Chinese national flag, while Barack Obama and Angela Merkel just notice this old guy's "strange" behavior.

After this summit leader "power" show, President Hu Jintao carefully collect his motherland's national flag. He is the only leader to do this!

  1. Bull$hit – the flag stuck to his shoe. Love the ultra-nationalist, face saving spin on this though. It made me laugh.

      he may not pick it up by purpose, but he did put it into his right pocket, which in fact avoiding it being swept away.

    • SamS says:

      It wasn’t even an embarrassing moment to begin with. But Your hypocritical automatic attack mode reveal plenty about your shallow self. Low life

    • adam says:

      He picked it properly instead of steping on it like others. He is a gentleman.

    There was one time in my class one of my students asked me about my opinions of US, I said the US is better than my home country China in many ways. And she asked me again which one do I like better, US or China, and I told her, whether she is in her golden time or bad time, China is always my best loved country ever

  3. William says:

    He did it because it was sucked on his shoes, according to the Chinese news. Get your facts straight.

        • Peakins says:

          Hi William and Mi, the news you showed is absolutely not Chinese news. First, it is not written in Chinese characters. Second it is on the Yahoo website, which is a not so much known website in China. Last, it must not be written by a Chinese but by an American. If you want view real Chinese news, please learn Chinese. Otherwise you will never know what is really going on in China.

          • PJ Li says:

            You cant trust every thing you read and heard in the news,no matter if its in chinese or another language,just because its written in chinese does not make it true.
            If you think just because you can speak,read and write chinese,and you know whats is really going,Peakins my friend,i truly feel sorry for you.

    • yuli says:

      Don’t say words when you don’t know the fact and even understand.
      I am a chinese and am sure that he did it because he is a elegant chinese, we love our country, you love your owns, but please don’t distort the fact.

      Your presidents are good so, perhaps for all of you, it is not important to pick up your own flag, because they are only abandoned plastic, but We are moved by our chairman, that he cares country even in such little details.

      If you were in that place, will you pick up your own flag? We will.

  4. Roger says:

    He is really awesome!!

  5. yuli says:

    PS. And I am so anger at all the political games, am not a number of party, but when I got different automatic phone calls and met with people who say how bad our chinese party, I am so angry. Yes ,we have problems, yes our life level is not so good as some of country, but our country never abandon us. If we are not satisfied at our party, we can do something by ourselves, but not annoyed by your phonecalls.

    And in the time of crisic, all we should to do is get together and work harder but not waiting fro pies form air!!!

  6. Daniel says:

    A great and respected Leader!

  7. Pyro says:

    Its obvious by the picture,that it was stuck to his shoe….No one ever picks those flags up,even Mr. Hu Jintao. Show me one time in the past that he has done this and I may take this story seriously.

    BTW:Why are there 35 people in the picture,at The G20 Summit?

    • SamS says:

      UN people and IMF people on the back row make it 35 people. It is true it stuck to his shoes, but what do u do when something stuck to ur shoes? u treat it like garbage, but obviously wasn’t the case here with Hu.

  8. PJ Li says:

    1.If he truly picked it up due to his patriotic of our motherland, he is awesome.
    2.If he picked it up due to the fact that it was stuck to his shoe,he is awesome.for the fact that he did not just chuck it back on the floor.(littering)as most of people would do.
    3.Atleast he didnt steal a pen during an international signing ceromony. lol
