S. Korea’s disgraced president booted from power by court
South Korea’s Constitutional Court has ruled to formally end impeached President Park Geun-hye’s rule.
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. The presidential system has a number of fatal flaws, and even the US occasionally has its problems. South Korea's constitution should be revamped to incorporate a modified semi-presidential system, and the presidency should declared to be above party politics. In addition, the heads of the judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years, and 1/4 of all lawmakers should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Beijing throws the book at Hong Kong’s foreign judges
The jailing of seven policemen for beating up a protester has led to an outpouring of anger at the Briton who passed sentence and reopened debate about the number of expats in the court system
Article 39 of Hong Kong’s Basic Law states that "the right to self-determination is specified in the two international human rights conventions." The people of Hong Kong should wake up and exercise their rights. In Switzerland the threshold for holding a referendum is 50,000 citizens, and people can voice their opinion via the ballot box and not by taking to the streets. The people have the right to call for a referendum on any public issues. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Is China avoiding arms race with US by setting ‘low-key’ defense budget?
A 7 per cent defence budget increase rate for the world’s biggest army was carefully decided and aimed at keeping China from becoming tangled in an arms race with the US, Chinese military experts say.
Democracies worldwide should support Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would attract the 1.4 billion people of China to call for democratization of the CCP and put pressure on North Korea to seek democracy as well. Democracies everywhere should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, leading the way to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Poachers kill rare giant tusker elephant in Kenya
One of Africa's rare giant tusker elephants has been killed by poachers in southern Kenya
In order to protect endangered wild animals in Africa, a unified constitutional standard is needed that conforms to the ideals of One World under One Set of Laws. African countries should carry out constitutional reform to implement democratic systems and abandon the rule of law. Specific individuals or groups who attempt to establish monopolies should be checked by tools like direct election of the heads of government branches in alternating years. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development
Trilateral deterrence must be boosted against North Korea’s greater threat
It is imperative for three nations — Japan, the US and South Korea — to maintain close cooperation and enhance their deterrence.
The US, Japan and South Korea should support Taiwan's drive for constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would encourage China's 1.4 billion people to call for democratization and lead eventually to democratization in North Korea as well – and world peace would be born. Democracies everywhere should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting the way to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Philip Hammond's budget speech was light on changes – and jokes
Chancellor Philip Hammond delivered a shorter budget than his predecessors, light on big policy changes and fairly sparing with the jokes.
Lord Acton once noted that "Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption." To prevent corruption among officials, the people should exercise their sovereignty and call for comprehensive constitutional reform to implement greater democracy and rule of law. This should include separation of powers and checks and balances, direct election of the heads of government branches and elections that are free of charge to all candidates in order to cut the symbiotic ties that foster corruption. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Somalia: 'People are dying of hunger...there's no water'
Fatumata Hassan sits in the opening of her ramshackle shelter. She is tired and gaunt
Somalia’s government structure should be changed to a modified semi-presidential system like that of Finland, and the legislative system should be changed to a committee-style arrangement similar to Switzerland’s. The prerequisite for permanent peace in the world is democratization. Governments should draw up basic constitutions incorporating the abovementioned traits and carry out a paradigm shift to adopt the principle of One World under One Set of Laws. The constitutions should be amended as needed to stay abreast of the times. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Video: Despite the dangers, many Mosul civilians have stayed behind
The government of Iraq needs to change its constitution to implement a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet and parliament similar to that used in Finland, with the parliament styled after the committee-style body seen in Switzerland. The government of Iraq should draft a constitution which embodies the basic ideals of democracy as well as the concept of One World under One Set of Laws, and strive to ensure that it will always be in step with the times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development and Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Editorials-Crisis in Northeast Asia becoming more intense
Taiwan must move to bring about constitutional reform and achieve true freedom and democracy. Doing so will set off a drive for democratization among the 1.4 billion people of China. This will then spread to North Korea, and when peace is achieved on the Korean peninsula the world will be much safer for all. The world’s democratic nations must back Taiwan as a beacon for democracy for Asia which will light the path to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
