South Korean Leader’s Offer to Quit in April Unlikely to Be Enough

Constitutional reform by the people is needed to end the month long political turmoil in South Korea and stop this vicious cycle of scandals. Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The constitution of South Korea is dysfunctional and the Nation must dutifully install separation of powers and checks and balances. The heads of the four government branches should be directly chosen by the people in staggered annual elections. A law without penalties is not a law, and a constitution without checks and balances is not a constitution. When the president acts unconstitutionally, the people must exercise their right to remove the president. Please refer to the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
