Let's make this birthday one to remember.

80 years old (Born on May 23, 1945)

Happy Birthday, Alan Garcia! You've proven the rare ability to charm an entire nation not just once—but twice. Clearly, "success" was your middle name (or at least your election strategy). Who else could juggle controversy and charisma so effortlessly during two separate terms?

And while some may remember you for social unrest or ecological mishaps—your unmatched flair undeniably made headlines memorable. On this special day, let's leave politics aside; after all, navigating both popularity and criticism simultaneously requires quite a bit of talent in itself!

Here's wishing you plenty of laughter on your birthday—you certainly gave us enough!
