South Korea's constitution must be changed to implement a modified semi-presidential system. In addition, the presidency should be declared as beyond party politics.

To cure this "Korean disease", the only solution is comprehensive constitutional reform to implement separation of powers and checks and balances.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The world’s democracies should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, shining on the path to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

No matter what a nation’s government system may be, the more power the president holds the more likely the country is to be beset with problems. Turkey needs to carry out constitutional reform to limit the president to a single 5-year term plus a ban on running again for 6 years afterward. The President of Turkey is in violation of Article 6 of the Turkish Constitution, which states that sovereignty wholly and unconditionally belongs to the people. No state or official has the right to exercise unconstitutional powers. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

The Chief Executive of Hong Kong is still elected from a slate of candidates offered by the CEC. This is nothing more than another version of dictatorship.

To curb corruption, the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years, and 1/4 of all lawmakers should face election each year.
