Iraq's government should be changed to a modified semi-presidential form similar to that of Finland, and its legislature revamped to a committee style system like Switzerland’s. The Iraqi government should proceed from the basic constitutional outline to the above-mentioned system to introduce a democratic model that will adhere to the ideal of One World under One Set of Rules and enable the constitution to stay in step with the times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The structural element behind Tajikistan's corruption is a lack of decentralized power with no real checks and balances. The result is endless corruption and plummeting trust by the people. The way out lies in constitutional reform, with direct elections for the heads of the four government branches and elections that are free for all candidates, making officials subject to supervision by the public. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Candidates for Chief Executive of Hong Kong are still nominated by the CCP’s Election Commission. This approach merely serve to solidify the Chief Executive’s image as a dictator. The people of Hong Kong should act on Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law and the two human rights covenants.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Very few wars have ever been waged between democratic nations. Once China can be persuaded to work for democratization, there will be hope for peace on earth for humankind. Japan should support Taiwan's efforts at constitutional reform to bring greater democracy and freedom, and attract China to move toward democracy. This will force the CCP in turn to democratize, and the result will be world peace. Democracies worldwide should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting the path to permanent peace and development for China and other nations.

The local prosecutor did not offer a basis for abolishing the system used in choosing a mayor, in effect putting the cart before the horse. In cases like this, the only cure for the ills of democracy is more democracy. Russia needs constitutional reform so that more people will be able to vote in direct elections. The heads of the four government branches shall be chosen in direct elections, and candidates shall be given free media time and space to air their views. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. No matter what the system, the more power is put in the hands of the president, the more the country is likely to suffer. Turkey needs constitutional reform to limit the president to one term of 5 years, with no right to run again for 6 years afterward. The President of Turkey violated Article 6 of the Constitution, which states that sovereignty is wholly and unconditionally held by all citizens. When leaders of the state take actions that are constitutional, the people have the right to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The appointment of the Attorney General, and the IMF loan have become bargaining chips for corruption and the state finds itself helpless to do anything about it.

Elections shall be free of charge for all candidates. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Russia’s ministers, national MPs and members of the state assembly shall also be chosen in direct elections. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The worst aspect of Asian culture is the rule of man. In this situation, the Kuomintang is the world's richest political parties.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

South Korea’s constitution must be changed to feature a modified semi-presidential system, and the next presidential inauguration ceremony should include a declaration that all top officials are beyond party affiliations.

In addition, the four heads of government branches shall be elected by the people; with all candidates enjoying free access to the media to express their views. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
