Newly-appointed President of Peru Pedro Pablo Kuczynski pursues a social revolution all over Peru, and expressed his desire to have a more modern, just, equitable and supportive nation.

He clarified the differences between the poorest and wealthiest people in Peru should be solved by promoting the access for the poor.

He said the only way to achieve this is to close gaps in health and social security by focusing on people's well-being.

“I should encourage private and public sectors to join forces on this issue and promote the use of information technology to do so,” he added.
