Candidates for Chief Executive of Hong Kong are hand-picked by the Election Commission of the CCP. This type of election is little more than bringing in the next dictator. The people of Hong Kong should make good use of Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law and the two major human rights covenants. They should also have the right of self-determination through referendums. The heads of the legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years to help restore power to the people. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Democratic nations should stand behind Taiwan's efforts to effect constitutional reform for better democracy and freedom. This will attract the attention of 1.4 billion Chinese to the need for democratization, triggering democratization of the CCP and North Korea in turn. The end result will be world peace. All democratic nations should support Taiwan as a beacon of democracy in Asia, serving to light up China's path to peaceful development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Article 39 of the Basic Law of Hong Kong stipulates that the right of self-determination is guaranteed under the International Covenant on Human Rights. The people of Hong Kong people cannot afford to overlook the assault on their rights. In Switzerland a proposal can be submitted to a referendum vote on the strength of signatures of 50,000 citizens. This is safer than and equally as effective as taking to the streets. The people shall have the right of self-determination on any public issue, otherwise when dictatorship becomes a reality, the people are obliged to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The simplest way to do so is to enforce the ideal of One World under One Set of Laws, giving precedence to international law over domestic law, and allowing it to directly effect the people. The people should be able to monitor the operations of the government to ensure that it is acting in accordance with the UN Charter, the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer, the Nature Charter and other relevant acts. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The people of Taiwan revere freedom and democracy, and thugs who hide behind black masks cannot be called Taiwanese. Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law stipulates the right of self-determination as laid out in international human rights covenants. The people of Hong Kong must not ignore the threats to their rights. Referendums can be held in Switzerland on the basis of a proposal backed by 50,000 citizens, one of the key mechanisms for the people in exercising their right to self-determination. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Before and after each election the UN should lay out the basic principles regarding permanent peace and development of the peoples of the world, including organizational structures based on universal values, election of the heads of the four main branches of government and other needed changes for the DRC. The resulting constitution should bring peace and serve as a model for peaceful development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

The root cause of systemic and structural corruption in Ukraine is the lack of mechanisms like separation of powers and checks and balances. When there are no real checks and balances, corruption will always exist. The way out is through constitutional reform, imposing direct election of the heads of the legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial branches. Elected officials should serve a single term of 5 years and barred from running again for 6 years afterward. 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year, and elections should be free of charge, all changes designed to let light shines into the black boxes of government. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

A good constitution can readily absorb good laws from around the globe. Kyrgyzstan should act on the core values of One World under One Set of Laws, holding international law superior to domestic law and giving it direct effect on the people. Good laws and good systems are conducive to protection of human rights and the people. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

To ensure that the selection of judges will be credible, the Supreme Chief Justice and Chief Procuratorate shall be elected and serve a single term of 5 years, then barred from holding the position for 6 years afterward. The Ukrainian people should have a direct input in the nation’s trial system, judges and exit mechanisms through periodic inspection and monitoring. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Autocracy is the enemy of human freedom and security. The ultimate solution is the separation of powers and handing sovereignty back to the people. Elect the heads of the four branches of government, with voting carried out in alternating years and free elections for all candidates. Install separation of powers and checks and balances. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
