Interview: Keiko Fujimori, Peruvian presidential candidate

[21boxhead]

ladrona

[doaleso]

china ladrona terroristaaaaaaaaa debes de tar presa con tu padre hija de puta

[kumpeligor]

its true .. Fujimori was one of the BEST presidents peruvians EVER had, by the end of 80s Peru was facing worst crisis ever, terrorism was about to take the power and 7200% hiperinflation was taken away people's pocket. However Fujimori was the only President who tackle this issues and succeded.

if today Fujimori is in prison is because this was a revenge from leftists that support left wing, until today there is no proof to send him into the jail. LONG LIFE FOR FUJIMORI !!!!!

[MAGICO240]

Fujimori was the worst president of Peru.

His daughter is not prepared even to run a little company.

[HeliusSolar]

All politicians must speak more than one language, otherwise they will be ashamed at the international reunions like happened to ex peruvian president Alan Garcia who needed a translator to speak with George Bush.

[usermax100]

Stupid sand monkey reporting. You want news or propaganda?

[jaludanza7]

viva keiko!!!

[SPS148669]

I glad that phat phucken sumo scumbag lost! She goes around boasting to the Inca people of how well she can speak English even though English is laguage of Britian. The Japanese are hypocrites. They say they hate European Westerners but enjoy being Imperial Westerner towards Native American people

[happydelicious]

Delicious...nice busty Japanese Latina...her ass is so phat!

[mbett99]

Kaiko fujimori please go home JAPON.Let perubians, with perubians.

[aliothalive]

@mbett99 peruvians my friend, peruvians :)

[charronfamilyconnect]

I agree with you that the US is just as corrupt and maybe more than Peru? Actually I dont live in the USA so why you jumping to conclusions man? I live on a soverigh island free of corrupt government/politicians! My wife's family is from Peru and I travelled there many times and see all the bullshit that goes on there. The difference is that most Peruvians know there government is a joke, but most americans dont know and are brainwashed so I think we both agree with one another no?

[charronfamilyconnect]

I dont understand why the government of Peru is so corrupt. They force you to vote for the latest crook or penalize you. I thought this was a democratic country not a dictatorship. I mean why the hell would someone accept being forced to vote for a crook. This is comparable to being an accesory to a crime! I call this self incrimination! If you know your doing something wrong by voting for a corrupted politician who will do harm to your country then why do it? This is immoral & an atrocity!

[luisbeck007]

@charronfamilyconnect YOU ARE AN IMBECILE WHY ARE THEY SO CORRUPT ??? THE USA HAS WORLD RECORD OF DEBT ; WORLD RECORD OF PEOPLE IN JAIL; WORLD RECORD OF DRUG ADDICTS ; WORLD RECORD OF MILITARY EXPENDITURES AND YOU WANT TO BLAME FUJIMORI WHO DID PUT IN JAIL THOSE TERRORIST VERY FAST AND AT A VERY LOW COST ??? THOSE NEWS THERE ARE NOTHING BUT BULLSHIT - JUST A WASH BRAIN - THIS IS WHY YOU ARE SO IGNORANT BECAUSE THEY FORCE YOU TO PAY TAXES BUT NOT TO VOTE - SO THEY CAN DO SHIT ALL OVER THE WORLD

[luisbeck007]

OLLANTA = BIN LADEN = DRUG CARTELS = CHAVEZ

[TheMchuquillanqui]

@luisbeck007 That's wrong, you have to investigate a lot more. Try again.

[BelgPer]

Keiko doesnt represent to the democraci no way,she is not at all that good dat she says,of course not,she allowd all the bad ways all the corruption dat her father did,she was kind of doll, now she has a chance to be prsident but she doesnt have no experience,she was eductated in the usa with money from the people from peru,she just make fun from us,her goal is just to take her father out from the jail,people dont want to see that.

[1AngelSolo]

All intelligent and reasonable people from Peru will vote for Ollanta. Only those masochist who like to get robbed, murdered, humiliated, acused, etc. Will vote for the Fujimori party with Keiko as the head of that mafia. Keiko CLEARLY said that she wont let her father be in prison. Now she changes her mind? LOL

[thellcooljose1]

i got really upset saying bad about peru or being peruvian, call us a 3 world country.

peru is not a rich country ,bud some people who are living in a 1st world countries have a 4 world minds.

and yes both keiko and the reporter are from peru ,the reason why spoken in english was too reach the international media. dont be so slow, please.

generalisation is dumb, is like saying all the people in a bar are alcoholics.

this is just a easy example,corruption is big in the world ,regardeless where??

[thellcooljose1]

anybody who born and raised in peru,is peruvian.

corrupted? to be honest i dont think so.

garcia was 2 times president in he's 1 st term was very bad, bud the 2 term was very good. fujimori was good and toledo, having said this, thoses goverment period was not perfect,bud better and better one behind the other, proud of being peruvian.

people dont get confused peru is not a banana republic, or micky mouse land.

viva el peru ..! peruvian 4ever if you dont like my coment too bad. peace

[pixusbubblejet]

Supposedly "inferior" poor 3rd-world country like Peru can have an Woman Asian Peruvian as Presidential candidate.. But supposedly "superior democratic" rich superpower like United States doesnt even have any Asian American Man as Presidential Candidate.

[Schwyndfst]

It is funny to see Ms Aizcorbe interviewing Keiko in English,

Both are peruvian and fluent spanish speakers

[jradetzky]

@Schwyndfst sure, but they want to reach out to al-jazeera's international audience by speaking English

[jradetzky]

poor peru, it seems they're trapped in a vicious circle with the same political families over and over again. 

[Schwyndfst]

@jradetzky

Yep, it ain't nothin' to be proud about

but Socialism... no thanks

[phooey108]

@TheSmugAtheist

ALLAHU ACKBAR!

[viotech]

let us hope neither of these fucks mess it up.

[11447777]

let peruvians decide, for my part I say GO KEIKO.

[uben56]

I think we could find more corrupt families! Stay on point please. Remove all murdering assholes. What these people say is simply not what they do. Once elected it is too late and history repeats no matter what country, no matter what person! If she was part of a corrupt government and had knowledge of same history will repeat. Use any government as example and I do mean any. These news interviews are a wonderful things only because they allow freedom the press (maybe). Once Power is achie

[jradetzky]

Peruvians are all corrupt, regardless of ethnicity

[oO21AlfonX91Oo]

@jradetzky stfu asshole. If you don't know us, just shut up. And don't generalize your idea.

[jradetzky]

@oO21AlfonX91Oo Fujimori, Toledo, Alan Garcia are all from different ethnicities but just as corrupt. Aren't they?

[oO21AlfonX91Oo]

@jradetzky Fujimori? yes, alberto fujimori, but not his daughter. She's different.

[jradetzky]

@oO21AlfonX91Oo HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

[oO21AlfonX91Oo]

@jradetzky what's so funny?

[jradetzky]

@oO21AlfonX91Oo that you think she is different. Caimanes del mismo pozo

[jradetzky]

@oO21AlfonX91Oo "Caimanes del mismo pozo" (alligators from the same pond) as Hugo Chavez says

[WellIAMScottish]

I understand that Asian people immigrated to South America after the World Wars, but the indigenous people who have been there for thousands of years need to be in leadership. If the Japanese people don't like it, they should go back to Japan.

[aliothalive]

@WellIAMScottish I don't quite agree with that point of view...I mean, in any country or nation, anyone who loves its soil, its territory and its people, and has an honest and true will to make positive changes on it, is a valid option. Race shouldn't be an important factor but qualifications and a right vision.

[thellcooljose1]

second most multiracial country after brazil

[AndrewMann552]

Poor Peru if it gets stuck with this corrupt clown as president. She will pardon her criminal daddy and then continue selling the country off to foreign corporations and filling the pockets of local oligarchs.

[thellcooljose1]

peru is the second most racial contry in the world

[HenryDavidT]

Poor Keiko: "Are you sure you will not pardon him?" "I'm pretty sure"!  Talking about being between a rock & a very hard place! We had some good, college cafeteria discussions w/ student colleagues from Latin & S. America. "The El Chino Presidente"! Many loved him. Hell, not just poor Peruvians but even the USA was behind Fujimori, when he was dismantling Mao Shinning Path left & right, taming inflation, & building schools for the poor. But hunger for dictatorial power destroyed him.

[victorcintron1970]

Dont vote for her she lies !!!!!!!

[xplosivelilly]

not everyone in latin america is latino...you also hav ethnic whites, asians and blacks. how is that so difficult to understand? Peru has a gigantic Asian population. Brazil has more lebanese than lebanon and the highest amount of japanese outside japan. Southern Chile has ethnic germans. I dont get why is that so hard to comprehend?

[Evergr3entree]

@xplosivelilly Thank you for pointing that out, but it's actually the Spanish, Italians, French, Portuguese (Whites) who are the real Latins. Not the Amerindians or Mestizos (partly).

[xplosivelilly]

@Evergr3entree ohh i know, but i'm just saying in mainstream language what pple say...like latino/hispanic or whatever. in my country hispanic pple are just lumped as 'spanish pple' due to language regardless of race

[aliothalive]

@Evergr3entree actually I believe that everyone who speaks Spanish language are considered Latins, because their main language is a Latin based language...perhaps the ones who speaks others languages as their mother tongue, for instance Quechua or Aymara, can't be considered Latin people, for obviously reasons.

[jpazizile]

@xplosivelilly so very true my cousin in law from Argentina is 1/4 Greek and another 1/4 Italian but my cousin is Filipino

[XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX]

@xplosivelilly americans are ignorant of that...they think all latinos look like speedy gonzales

[theylive1984rm]

@XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX Latin is a Language Not a race Retard it happens to be a white language Spanish is the most spoken dialect of Latin ! in other words in plain English if you are Not A White Spaniard an you still speak Spanish you get Tagged as Latino's aka Slave's to a language that was forced on you! know one in south America ever spoke Spanish Period until Spain arrived an Conquered most of the Indigenous Mayans

[clexur]

@theylive1984rm

You were doing so well until the end my friend....Mayans were not from South America...different empires.. ;)

[clexur]

@theylive1984rm

You were doing so well until the end my friend...Mayans were not from South America..two different empires ;)

[theylive1984rm]

@clexur do your home work the oldest empire was the Mayan in central America that extended in to parts of south America all the rest were break away factions that galvanized later ie; Aztecs Inca an so on the most resent discovered pyramid date to 3800 BC Mayan! so i use Mayan as general term not to be divisive !

there are over 20 million Mayan descendants alive in central america

[aliothalive]

@theylive1984rm perhaps the oldest empire but not the oldest civilization, take a look:

"Caral was inhabited between roughly 2600 BC and 2000 BC, Caral was described by its excavators as the oldest urban center in the Americas, a claim that was later challenged as other ancient sites were found nearby"

[jradetzky]

@XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX

Ándale! ¡Ándale! ¡Arriba! ¡Arriba! ¡Hepa¡ ¡Hepa! ¡Hepa! Yeehaw!

[heomak]

@XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX LOL...so true..even India, where i come from...there are different races that are considered Indian too(e.g. in the eastern provinces called the SEVEN SISTERS STATES....majority of Indian citizens there are mongoloid people who could pass off for a Japanese or Korean person....but who are as much as INDIAN as say, a stereotypical brown indian person. ...but the world doesn't know about the diversity within INDIA & so many other countries around the world.

[theheatofthemoment]

@XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX when the fuck have you EVER heard ANY American say that? I'm American and I've never heard that once in my entire life.

[XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX]

@xplosivelilly r u saying whites blacks and asians that were born in latin america are not consider latinos?..thats like saying a peruvian being born in the u.s not consider an american...

[xplosivelilly]

@XxMzt4RVLCNRYxX i mean in the context what is considered your 'average' latino in mainstream belief aka metizos ie the majority ethnic group in latin america. When people think latino/hispanic, that's the first thing they really think. I am from South America, however a caribbean island and not a hispanic one either, i consider myself caribbean and south american but not latino :P

[WinkyMaeve]

@TheSmugAtheist so why are you commenting on their videos you fucking loser

[roburo2002]

She's a Japanese Peruvian an Asian latina

[WinkyMaeve]

@roburo2002 You know that both her parents were ethnically Japanese and she has zero latina blood in her right?

[roburo2002]

@WinkyMaeve racially Japanese culturally a latina its called assimilation

[Evergr3entree]

@WinkyMaeve Quit being ignorant. The Japanese have history in Peru. By the way only about 14% of Peruvians have Latin (Spanish) blood, about 37% have partial Latin blood (Mestizos), and 45% are Amerindian (no Latin blood, Mongoloid race). Therefore, there is no "authentic Peruvian look".

[HenryDavidT]

@Evergr3entree There is no "Mongoloid race." Please, take some freakin' introductory classes in biology, genetics, or anthropology. Nor is there a "Peruvian" race. The "original" people (meaning: before the arrival of the White Europeans) who populated the Americas, from Alaska through the tip of Patagonia, WERE ORIGINALLY from Asia: thousands of years of isolation created the various distinct groups, in the Americas, as well as in Asia. But they WERE from Asia 11K-13K or so years ago.

[aliothalive]

@HenryDavidT I am not sure if he/she was trying to point out that some of the Peruvian ancestors were originated in Mongolia, which is also quite inaccurate; otherwise she/he has to explain its weird terminology :s

[aliothalive]

@Evergr3entree what do you mean with mongoloid race? quite unusual word....

[HardScopeMedia]

lol i was convinced peru was in south america... *googles peru* guess i was right.

[jradetzky]

@HardScopeMedia good for u

[cholorockabilly]

the fujimoris are another example of the brother blood connection that unites the Native ppl of america,asians and aboriginals of australia

[TheMchuquillanqui]

@cholorockabilly Except their are the worst example, cause they are the most corrupt family ever.

[cholorockabilly]

@TheMchuquillanqui agreed



[tripudium17]

I'm glad to have AlJazeera: it is valueable to catch a glimpse into the goings on around the world.

[maicongphuc]

is she Japanese?

isn't it weird seeing a Japanese woman putting herself up for presidential election?

[aznbreez]

@maicongphuc why ofcourse NO, you just have not seen enuf of it to get use to.

[maicongphuc]

@aznbreez whatever...

[kinoptika]

You'll see completely the opposite if you type down:

Keiko anuncia que librerará a su padre

[WinkyMaeve]

lol....she doesn't look very peruvian to me, why would u elect a foreigner to lead ur people

[Sagefrakrobatik]

@WinkyMaeve Has it ever occured to you that maybe she was born in Peru? 

[WinkyMaeve]

@Sagefrakrobatik I am persian if me and my persian girlfriend have a baby while working/living in china is that baby chinese???

[aznbreez]

@Sagefrakrobatik where ever she is born as long as she is in peru long enuf to be a citizen of it. if she loves peru to the heart like all its citizens then it is perfectly fine. if the people believes in her commitment then thats all there is.

[TheMchuquillanqui]

@aznbreez The problem is that she can use her Japanesse or American nationalities to scape just like her father did.

[aznbreez]

@TheMchuquillanqui i dont know the history but, it seems like she is LIKED by alot of ppl, My point was there is nothing wrong with any ethnic to be Pres. in any country. as long as she is a citizen of it. i was not born in America but this is my home now and i will love my country just as much as any other citizen.

[TheMchuquillanqui]

@WinkyMaeve She is legally peruvian by birth

[heomak]

@WinkyMaeve if u wanna get that picky, you might as well demand for the resignation of all white south americans(of european descent) who hold key/important positions in the governments of south american countries.....why don't u ask brazilians why they elect a woman of bulgarian descent(whose parents immigrated to brazil)? ....just so u know..keiko was born and raised in peru..she speaks fluent spanish. she is as much peruvian as white peruvians(whom u don't seem to have any problem with).

[WinkyMaeve]

@heomak but both her her parents are ethnically Japanese....

please tell me, I am Persian, if me and my Persian girlfriend are living and working in latin america, and we happen to have a Persian baby while we live there, is that baby Latino?....

[heomak]

@WinkyMaeve why don't you ask the same question of white south americans(whose family immigrated to south america)?

keiko's dad(alberto fujimori) was also born & raised in Peru so he's a Peruvian too...if you still don't consider him a Peruvian and look at him as "foreigner", then you're out of your mind. Of course, ethnically(blood wise), he's Japanese but the way he thinks, act, and the environment he was born & raised in is PERUVIAN. so u can't question his nationality.

[heomak]

@WinkyMaeve your baby would be latino & would hold the nationality of whatever country she was born in.

remember nationality & ethnicity is different....nationality is what country you're from(born and raised in) and ethnicity is(your genetic makeup-e.g. hazara, han chinese, singalese, tamil)....Barack Obama's nationality is AMERICAN & his ethnicity is MIXED(half white and half black). Lucy Liu's (the actress) nationality is American but her ethnicity is Chinese.

[heomak]

@WinkyMaeve your'd daughter ethnicity is Persian but her nationality is whatever country she was born & raised in and holds the passport of(e.g. if she was born in Brazil-your daughter is Brazilian(nationality)....same thing for famous model Adriana Lima.her nationality is Brazilian but her ethnicity is a mix of swiss, african and indigenous brazilian.

[rafaelvu]

I don't care what you say but i believe more in her words than in humala's...

[WinkyMaeve]

@rafaelvu you know shes japanese not peruvian right?

[DeadIslandTrailers]

immortal technique's home land!

[TripleSpeak]

Here in Amerika, we would never even consider a female president. Because we're so free & "equal" & have so much democracy.

[kinoptika]

FUCKING LIAR!

[drewskione]

Wow, this is interesting.

[tictocmm]

@drewskione definitely is. i for one think she´s probably full of it.
