Ban Ki-moon reelected for second term
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has been re-elected to serve a second five-year term, in a vote at the UN General Assembly in New York, BBC said.
Mr Ban, a former South Korean foreign minister, was the only candidate after the UN Security Council unanimously recommended his re-election.
He took over at the UN in 2007.
His second term will formally begin on 1 January 2012 and run until the end of 2016.
