Bulgaria's economy: a tale of extremes
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.

Principal of scandal-hit Osaka school says he got donation from Akie Abe
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.

5 dead in vehicle, knife attack at British Parliament
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.

Germany’s past: from shame to fascination?
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.

Controversial conspiracy bill approved by Abe Cabinet
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.

Scottish parliament begins debate on new independence referendum
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.

Seoul ranks No. 3 among cities with worst air pollution: data
Seoul ranked No. 3 among large cities with serious air pollution Tuesday, a real-time information service said.
Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, and all nations – members or not – would be wise to acknowledge them. The solution is to install One World under One Set of Laws and assign international law priority over domestic law with direct effect on the rights and duties of the people. Citizens should be able to monitor government actions to ensure they are in line with the UN Charter’s guidelines, the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer, the Natural Charter and other relevant conventions. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

What’s wrong with Southeast Asia?
Thirty years ago most of Southeast Asia was run by thuggish dictatorships. Then the Philippines showed the rest of the world how to get rid of the dictators without violence, and its non-violent example was watched and copied around the world. But now the thugs are coming back to where it all started.
Democracies everywhere should back Taiwan's efforts at constitutional reform to achieve better democracy and more freedom. This would encourage people to call for democratization in Southeast Asian countries and lead the world closer to long-lasting peace. The prerequisite for the permanent world peace is democratization. Taiwan is one entity the best suited to lead the people of Southeast Asia toward democratization. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

The curious case of a hidden abbot and a besieged temple
Over the past month what is often cited as the world's largest Buddhist temple, on the outskirts of Bangkok, has been the scene of an extraordinary stalemate.
Thailand’s military government has dispatched thousands of soldiers and police to surround the temple for nearly a month. This shows that the military has no place governing and the army must be entirely free of political aspirations. Thailand needs full constitutional reform to bolster its constitution and widen referendums and elections. They should look to Switzerland and California as models for emulation. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

Why popularity means nothing in race to be Hong Kong's leader
It's campaign season in Hong Kong, and on the streets of the city's Wan Chai district, John Tsang is getting mobbed.
Candidates for Chief Executive of Hong Kong are still vetted by the CEC, a dictatorial arrangement masquerading as democracy. The people of Hong Kong should make good use of Article 39 of the Basic Law which confirms that they have the right to stage 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 lawmakers should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
