South Korean special prosecutors said Monday that acting President Hwang Kyo-ahn has yet to respond to their calls to extend the investigation of a corruption scandal that led to the impeachment of President Park Geun-hye.
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption, and democracy has certain flaws, most notably in the presidential system of government. Even the US has problems, as evidenced in the current turmoil taking place in Washington.. South Korea's constitution needs to be changed to implement a modified semi-presidential system, and in the next inauguration ceremony the presidency should be declared to be above party politics. The heads of the judicial and procuratorial branches should be directly elected in alternating years, and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
