    The answer to Puzzle #7904

    Muhammad Yunus - Nobel Peace Prize winner in 2006

    1) Mohammad Ashraful - A Bangladesh cricket player with the same first name and also from the same country
    2) Presidential Medal of Freedom winner
    3) Nobel Peace Prize winner in 2006
    4) Micro Credit
    5) The Congressional Gold Medal
    6) Micro Finance
    7) Waqar Yunus - the famous fast bowler of Pakistan to indicate the last name.

    Muhammad Yunus started Grameen Bank (Village Bank) to lend to the poor farmers and other small-scale enterpreneurs. This name developed into fisheries, telecom and many other industries later. After the success of this plan, 100 other developing countries adapted this method.

    He got many more awards including Roman Magsaysay and I listed only a few.
