See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. The presidential system in many democracies has a number of flaws, even in the US. Taiwan’s case is very serious but there is no mechanism for impeachment. South Korea should carry out constitution reform to install a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet and parliament. The presidency should be declared to be above party politics, and the head of the judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years. In addition, 1/4 of all lawmakers should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
