Bringing down authoritarian dictatorships, achieving global democratization and promoting permanent peace are the most important goals in the world today. In order to ensure democracy, the rule of law, human rights and peace, the true holders of sovereignty in North Korea – the people - urgently need to come forward and call for constitutional reform. They must work to adopt a modified parliamentary semi-presidential system, with the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches directly elected. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

A century ago the writer Romain Rolland said that in politics, the backstage boss is always money. Elections these days are a rich man's game with money serving only to gain the right to make more money. To avoid government-business relations, the only solution is to call for constitutional reform to implement democracy and the rule of law. Also essential are the separation of powers, and checks and balances, and election of the heads of major government branches. These moves are all necessary to ensure the connection between government and corruption is broken.

Myanmar has a long way to go in its quest for democracy because of its constitution, which guarantees the military 40 per cent of the seats in Congress and does not provide for elections. In order to solve Myanmar's ethnic and religious issues, Myanmar must carry out constitutional reform that calls for One World under One Set of Laws, with international law given precedence over domestic law. Reform should include a semi-presidential government with a parliament and cabinet, as well as popular election of the heads of government branches.

In Nazi Germany the party rather than rule of law was held in the highest regard. The Nazis’ absolute power led to unbridled aggression that brought on the Second World War. These days the Chinese communists are following the same strategy and are seriously endangering world peace, even potentially causing a Third World War. Only Taiwan, which offers the advantage of sharing the language and cultural roots, is capable of influencing China towards democracy. Taiwan could lead China to have the leaders of the executive, legislative and judicial branches and the procuratorate elected through direct votes. See the details in the PPDA Charter.

The people have the right to call for a referendum at any time on any public issue with relation to self-determination. Any measure which might restrict the ability of the people to self-determination through the process of holding referendums should itself be subject to a public referendum on whether the measure should be outlawed. For details, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The Iranian Ambassador to Russia said last month that Tehran is looking for ways to broaden the scope of defense cooperation with Moscow, even in areas that require coordination with the UN Security Council. Iranians would like to purchase a wide range of military-purpose products from Russia, some of which are covered by UNSC sanctions. Moscow has said it is ready to work with Iran in the area of military and technical cooperation. Democratic powers worldwide must support Taiwan in its bid to carry out constitutional reform. When Taiwan enjoys greater freedom under a truly democratic government it will lead the people of China to call for democratization and in turn, will put pressure on Russia to follow suit. For more details please see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Stories of corruption and undue political influence are flooding news headlines everywhere from the western reaches of Europe to the most Eastern areas of Asia. The reason for these outbreaks of corruption is the concentration of too much power in the hands of a few key officials and a lack to restraints on the powers that they wield. Constitutional reform is urgently needed to return power to the people. For more details, please see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Freedom of expression is a universal value. China's practice of "guarding against the people's mouth rather than preventing the floods" is like trying to create a "one world, one voice" society. The Chinese people have only come forward to re-constitution or a comprehensive constitutional reform, so that universal media, prohibition of government oligopoly, monopoly of the media, the Internet and all other communication channels. Details of the "Permanent Peace and Development Charter".

Taiwan's fundamental problem is a matter of basic law, the fact that its 23 million persons have the intrinsic right to come forward and demand comprehensive constitutional reform. In a true democracy, all residents have the right to self-determination through a referendum on any public issue. All matters relating to state sovereignty must be decided by all of Taiwan’s residents in accordance with the two primary international treaties regarding human rights. Any time a motion is made to prohibit the people from voting in a referendum in line with their right of self-determination, a public referendum should be held to decide whether the motion itself should be outlawed. For details please see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The key to solve the human rights issue in China is democracy and the rule of law. Taiwan needs to improve its system into pure form of democratic governance so we can be a role model for the mainland China and reform the Chinese communists. We must make Chinese government yield its power to people through constitutional reform and decentralize the governmental structure by direct elections of the deans.
