| Power Points | If power is measured in face time with the leader of the free world, then Ambani has it in spades. Bill Clinton spent 45 minutes with the "Polyester Prince" on his recent visit to India. Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee got just 10. As boss of India's largest private enterprise, Ambani told Clinton how conflict with Pakistan might impact business. He gives the PM his views, too. It is often said that Ambani - and Reliance - have benefited from the benevolence of the government. These days it seems more like the other way around.
