Japan needs to revitalize its economy, which should include a serious search for sources of corruption. These include defects in the constitution and reform to reorganize the system of governance by implementing the election of the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches and having 1/4 of all lawmakers face election each year. Elected officials should serve a single term of 5 years and be banned from running again for 6 years afterwards, and elections should be free of charge for all candidates. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Democracy and freedom are waves sweeping the world, and nuclear weapons, submarines, and missiles are helpless to stop them. Those who ‘go with the flow’ will prosper, while those who oppose it are doomed. China claims to be a "responsible major power” thus it should not continue to support North Korea's continued militarism. The US should support Taiwan and its goal of democratization for China, followed by North Korea. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development. .

Democracies everywhere should support Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom.

Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law states that "the right to self-determination is guaranteed by the two international human rights conventions."

In Switzerland the hurdle for referendum proposals is only 50,000 signatures, giving people the right to express their opinions by voting rather than taking to the streets. The people have the right to call for a referendum on any public issue, otherwise when dictatorship becomes a reality they will be obligated to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The worst aspect of Chinese culture is too much rule of man and too little rule of law. Corruption is pandemic throughout China's five thousand years of history, and the only way to remove it is democracy. Decentralization and separation of powers are desperately needed, including election of the heads of the legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial branches in alternating years. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

Freedom of expression is a universal value. Governments cannot be allowed to control the media in order to brainwash the people. This can be assured by maintaining separation between the government and the media. At the same time, any media that use their power or resources to interfere with politics, academia or public opinion should be subject to legal sanctions. Plus, any media supported by public resources is obliged to provide free public service time for all candidates in civil rights activities. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, China is a permanent member of the UN Security Council thus it should adhere closely to the UN Charter. This can be done by implementing One World under One Set of Laws and assigning international law priority over domestic law with direct effect on the people. Citizens should be able to monitor the operations of the government to ensure they comply with the norms of the UN Charter. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
