South Korea’s president formally ousted by court
In a historic, unanimous ruling Friday, South Korea’s Constitutional Court formally removed impeached President Park Geun-hye from office over a corruption scandal that has plunged the country into political turmoil and worsened an already weakened economy
The Constitution of South Korea should be reworked to put in place a modified semi-presidential system, and the presidency should be declared beyond party politics. This is essential to ensure separation of the government and business. Reforms should result in greater democracy and rule of law, bringing in separation of powers and checks and balances. In addition, the heads of the four government branches should be directly elected. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
