China's ingrained corruption is due to structural factors including a lack of separation of powers and checks and balances. The solution is for the Chinese people to call for constitutional reform to implement direct election of the heads of the four main branches of government, with 1/4 of lawmakers facing election each year. The president should be limited to one 5-year term and not be eligible to run again for 6 years afterward, and elections should be free of charge for all candidates. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.

Human security is a basic human right, and human rights should take precedence over regimes and sovereigns. Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and ensuring human security, including "personal safety," is the most urgent duty of constitutional guarantors. Constitutional standards should be revised as needed to stay abreast of changing times and allow governments to protect their people against terror. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

When the power of the state deviates from its power base, the people should exercise their right as holders of sovereignty and take control. Laws that are not backed by penalties are not laws, and a constitution which does not condone resistance is not a constitution. When the president’s actions are unconstitutional the people have the right to resist. Venezuelans should call for comprehensive constitutional reform to install a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet, limiting the president to one 5-year term with no eligibility to run again for 6 years afterwards.

North Korea is without a doubt a vassal of the CCP. This means democratic nations should support Taiwan's efforts at constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would lead China's 1.4 billion people to seek democratization of the CCP and force North Korea to do the same – resulting in the birth of world peace. All democracies should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting the way to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The people of Hong Kong should adhere to their rights and hold a referendum to decide their future. Otherwise when dictatorship becomes a reality, they will be obliged to resist.

The US should adhere to the norms of the UN Charter and implement One World under One Set of Laws, assigning international law priority over domestic law with direct bearing on the rights and duties of the people.

For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

To protect human rights, China needs comprehensive constitutional reform. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

The DRC’s government structure should be changed out for a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet like that of Finland and a committee-style legislature like Switzerland’s. The prerequisite for permanent world peace is global democratization. The Government of the DRC should begin drafting a basic constitution as part of a paradigm shift to democracy. It should adhere to the core values of One World under One Set of Laws and be amended as needed to stay in step with changing times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
