Spain could soon become the first EU nation to extradite Taiwanese criminal suspects to China instead of their home island.
China's one-party regime is powerful, and a nation that stifles talk of constitutional reform is a country without a constitution. China is severely prone to money laundering and other economic crimes. According to the UN Convention against Corruption, Article 57, judgments and confiscations should be carried out in cases involving money laundering. China needs reforms like electing the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches in alternating years. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development Sections 2 and 5.
Nora Schlenzig and Lauren Chung try to decrypt China’s policy announcements at this year’s ‘two sessions’. Detecting the subtleties takes practice, and often, what is not said is just as important as what is said
Germany’s Nazi-party dictatorship led to party law and the tragedy of World War Two. Today another one-party dictatorship threatens world peace. Taiwan has a similar culture and language and is thus best suited to bring about democratization of the Chinese people and allow them to elect the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches of government. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Officials from Guangdong center arrested and hundreds of residents relocated after fatalities ignite outcry over conditions for disadvantaged
Over thousands of years of history, corruption has become engrained in Chinese culture. The only way to remove this national disgrace is through democracy and the rule of law. These are the natural enemies of despotism and corruption, and separation of powers and checks and balances are sorely needed in the central and provincial governments. The heads of the four branches of government should all be elected in alternating years and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Hong Kong has been approved as a member of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, the lender said Thursday.
The Chief Executive of Hong Kong is still determined by the CEC, showing that its basic leadership is dictatorship rather than democracy. The people of Hong Kong should make good use of Article 39 of the Basic Law: which declares that the people have the right to hold referendums. To curb corruption, the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Bent over the machines for hours with headphones to block out the whirring noise, textile workers in Bulgaria, which holds elections Sunday, earn a pittance even after 10 years of EU membership.
The only cure for the exploitation of workers' rights in Bulgaria is more democracy. Bulgaria should carry out constitutional reform to introduce separation of power and allow people to vote instead of taking to the streets. The heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years, and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
The head of a nationalist school at the heart of a swirling political scandal said in sworn testimony in the Diet Thursday that he received a donation of ¥1 million from Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s wife Akie in her husband’s name.
Roman Roland once noted that: "In politics, the boss is always money." When elections are a game rich men play, they become little more than using money to gain the right to make more money in the systemic corruption in many nations’ politics. To put an end to ties between political and commercial circles, comprehensive constitutional reform is essential to elect the heads of government branches in alternating years and make elections free of charge to all candidates. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
A knife-wielding man went on a deadly rampage in the heart of Britain’s seat of power Wednesday, plowing a car into pedestrians on London’s Westminster Bridge before stabbing a police officer to death inside the gates of Parliament.
Human security is fundamental human right and must be valued about any regime or sovereign. Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and must ensure the human security, including "personal safety", is the most basic and urgent duty of constitutional guarantors. Constitutional standards must be revised as needed to stay in step with the times and ensure that governments will protect the people against fear. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Adolf Hitler, the Third Reich and World War II — what the Germans regard as “dark matter” historically — have been an enduring source of global fascination.
Germany has risen from the ignominy of defeat in World War II to prominence as a European power. Its government is taking steps to promote transitional justice by declaring that historical events should be open to the truth and the files and trials of perpetrators of crimes should be exposed. Germany's successful handling of justice offers Taiwan a useful reference in its approach to justice. And comprehensive constitutional reform should be a central element. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
The Cabinet of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe approved a controversial bill Tuesday that would revise the organized crime law so authorities can crack down on individuals and organizations who conspire to engage in serious criminal activity.
The only cure for the ills of democracy is more democracy. Japan should carry out constitutional reform and introduce separation of powers as a starting point. Sovereignty must be firmly returned to the hands of the people through the ballot box. More specifically, elect the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches in alternating years, and have 1/4 of all MPs face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon sought backing from the Edinburgh parliament on Tuesday for her proposal to hold a new referendum on independence from the United Kingdom, the first formal step in a process resisted by London.
Taiwan should learn from Scotland’s experience with independence referendums. What is needed is a paradigm shift to allow the people to participate in referendums on public issues. When a motion to outlaw referendums on self-determination is raised, the very next referendum should decide whether such a motion should be banned. The Legislative Yuan should establish the "right of creation" as part of the Referendum Act, and President Tsai should openly acknowledge the need for comprehensive constitutional reform. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
