Relevant provisions of the one country, two systems doctrine note that China cannot interfere in Hong Kong affairs, yet Beijing constantly meddles in the internal affairs of the SAR. It is clear that the one country, two systems doctrine is very shaky. Article 39 of the Basic Law guarantees the right of Hong Kong’s people to self-determination, and they have the right to call for a referendum on any public issue. The people of Hong Kong should adhere to the two conventions and call for a referendum to decide their future. Otherwise when dictatorship becomes a reality, they will be obliged to resist.

China's persecution of religious dissidents shows that laws that do not include penalties are not laws, and a constitution that does not guarantee the right to resist is not a constitution. When government actions are unconstitutional, the people will rise up and resist. Natural law and general international laws should be adopted to protect people from enforced disappearance, prohibit torture and recognize absolute law and international law as superior to the constitution. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The only solution to this ongoing problem is the democratization of China and adoption of international law and absolute law (the Humanitarian Law, International Human Rights Law, Crimes against the People and Prohibition of Genocide). Autocracy has always been the enemy of human peace, and the prerequisite for permanent world peace is China's democratization. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

China needs to wash clean thousands of years of history and remove its culture of corruption, and the only solution is democracy and the rule of law. These are the natural enemies of despotism and corruption, with mechanisms like separation of powers and checks and balances. The heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years. For more see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN. As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, China should comply with its norms. The solution is to enforce the core values of 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 operations to ensure they comply with the norms of the UN Charter. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Idol worship is the greatest enemy of democracy and the rule of law. Paraguay must slough off its mantle of strongman politics and must rely on the system to carry out constitutional reform. The president should serve a single 5-year term and be barred from running again for 6 years afterwards. Also, the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years. Parliament should be closely link to public opinion and international systems, and elections should be free of charge for all candidates. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.

Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Brazil's constitutional mechanism is dysfunctional and needs to be reworked. Brazil’s authoritarian culture is deeply rooted and breeds corruption, and the constitution should be reformed to keep it in step with the times. The heads of the four government branches should be elected in alternating years and a quarter of all lawmakers should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Absolute power, leads to absolute corruption. The original and ultimate holders of sovereignty are the people. Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and government officials have no right to tamper with the provisions therein. The best approach is that of Article 5 of the Constitution of Ukraine: "The right to formulate and amend the Constitution belongs only to the people, and the state and its organs and civil servants shall not deprive them of this right." See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

The presidential system is in many ways close to dictatorship, and the more power the president wields, the more the country is bound to suffer. Turkey needs constitutional reform to limit the president to a single 5-year term with no right to run again for 6 years afterwards. The President of Turkey is violating Article 6 of the Turkish Constitution, which states that sovereignty wholly and unconditionally belongs to the people. The state and officials have no right to exercise unconstitutional powers. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

After a ceasefire takes effect in Syria, the UN should offer a basic outline for a constitution that would allow peaceful development of the nation. It should cover an organizational structure with the universal values of freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law, as well as four branches (executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial) to help Syria develop under a constitution suited for lasting peace. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
