Sí Cumple (approximate translation: "Keep Promises"[1] or "He Delivers"[2]), until 2005 called Let's Go Neighbor (Spanish: Vamos Vecino, VV), was a political party of Peru founded by Alberto Fujimori in 1998 in order for the party to participate in that year's municipal elections.
Its primary founder is Alberto Fujimori. Among its leaders are Absalón Vasquez and its current Secretary General, Carlos Orellana Quintanilla.
History
In 2000, the party joined up with Cambio 90, Nueva Mayoría to form the alliance Peru 2000 to support the presidential candidacy of Alberto Fujimori who is running for a third term.
In this same year, due to internal conflicts and Fujimori's resignation, the alliance broke off. In 2001 it participated in the general elections as part of the Solución Popular alliance with Con Fuerza Perú. It participated only in municipal and regional elections in 2002.
In 2005, the organization changed its name to "Sí Cumple" and formed the "Alianza Sí Cumple", again with Cambio 90-Nueva Mayoría. However, the Jurado Nacional de Elecciones (National Jury of Elections) did not accept this change, and the alliance dissolved.
Afterwards, Cambio 90-Nueva Mayoría formed the "Alianza por el Futuro" (Alliance for the Future), but Sí Cumple maintained its independence. In the second week of December 2005, at the National Congress of Sí Cumple, as well as that of the Alianza por el Futuro, Fujimori was selected as the presidential candidate for the general elections of 2006. They also selected Luisa María Cuculiza for First Vice President, and Germán Kruger for Second Vice President. However, Fujimori was barred from running as he is currently undergoing trial in Peru. Among the numerous charges, he's accused for the Barrios Altos and La Cantuta massacres.
