Why did president-elect Fujimori involve Protestant evangelicals in his Change 90 Party?

First, because he wanted to form an open, broadly-based movement composed of newcomers rather than the discredited traditional politicians. Second, because he saw in the evangelicals such virtues as honesty, responsibility, and a vocation for service. He very much appreciates these qualities, which he himself exemplifies. He's an honest man, austere, disciplined, hard working.
