I don't and that was my point.

The question is impossible to answer since no one knows everyone in the " wider society ".

All the answers will be impressions of what that person thinks and that of course varies with each person.

It's also getting answers from people who understand english, which again may taint the answers.

Iran is mostly associated with the Ayatollah, so I'm not convinced that Rouhani is well known. I think Ahmadinejad was more popular.

Duterte's is well known across SE Asia, but even here in Australia he's quite unknown.

Omar is largely unknown in the international community.

Actually Duterte methods of dealing with drug dealers is known a lot in Australia.

The Canadian PM is known in Australia due to his progressive programs.

For the British PMs, May and Cameron are not as commonly known compared to Thatcher and Blair

First Tier: Kim Jong Un, Trump, and Putin

Second tier: Merkel, Trudeau, Xi, and Duterte.

Everyone else below.

Trudeau is quite popular as many view him as Trump's polar opposite.
