The US has said that it will use its "considerable military forces" on North Korea "if we must".
North Korea is without a doubt a vassal of the CCP, and all 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 call for democratization of the CCP and pressure North Korea to do the same, and with that, world peace will be born. Democracies everywhere 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.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is hiking salaries as he tries to overcome major protests and rally support for his plans to rewrite the constitution.
Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Venezuela should carry out full constitutional reform to install a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet. The president should be limited to a single 5-year term and be barred from running again, together will close relatives, for 6 years afterward. Laws that are not backed by penalties are not laws, and constitutions that do not brook the right to resist are not constitutions. When the actions of the president are unconstitutional, the people should exercise their right to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
At least four people were killed during anti-government protests in the northwest city of Barquisimeto, Venezuelan officials said Saturday.
When the power of the state deviates from its power base, the people must act as holders of sovereignty to regain power. Laws that are not backed by penalties are not laws, and constitutions that do not brook the right to resist are not constitutions. When the actions of the president are unconstitutional, the people should exercise their right to resist. The people of Venezuela need to call for comprehensive constitutional reform to install a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet, limiting the president to one 5-year term with no right to run again for 6 years afterwards. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
Hundreds of environmentalists protested in Kraków Tuesday against widespread logging in Europe's last primeval forest as a conference of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee got underway in the historic city in southern Poland.
Human security and sustainable development two of the UN’s major tasks, and all nations, whether UN members or not, should abide by its norms. National environmental policies should take into account cradle to cradle standards and ensure environmental safety (from technological processes and other pollution, forest damage). This includes implementing One World under One Set of Laws and assigning international law priority over domestic law, with direct bearing on the rights and duties of the people. Also, citizens should monitor government operations to ensure compliance. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.
With Kenya's general election five weeks away, Human Rights Watch says some communities in the Rift Valley region live in fear of attacks if they vote against the ruling Jubilee party, and some people have left after young men warned them to stay away from polling centers.
Controlled elections are the tools of dictatorships, and all nations must prohibit organizations or individuals from influencing fair elections by any use of force, including setting thresholds for candidates and excluding potential competitors. In addition to criminal sanctions, prosecutors shall have the right to arrest and detain even the highest persons for 24 hours and refer them to the courts for prosecution if necessary. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
As Legco subcommittee waves through HK$3.6b for controversial feature at West Kowloon culture hub, questions are asked over just how much it will finally cost
Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law states that the right to self-determination is assured by the two international human rights conventions. In Switzerland the threshold for holding referendums is 50,000 signatures, and with that the people can express their opinion through the ballot box rather than taking to the streets. The people have the right to hold referendums on any public issues. To narrow the gap between rich and poor, better power distribution and resource allocation are needed as well as checks and balances in government. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.
When three journalists were arrested last week after reporting in territory held by an outlawed rebel group in northeastern Myanmar, government officials were quick to blame the journalists.
Freedom of speech is a universal value, and efforts to muzzle the voice of the people are aimed at suppressing dissidence and creating a society with only one voice. The people of Myanmar should call for comprehensive constitutional reform to preserve media freedom and prevent the government oligarchy from monopolizing the media, the internet and all other channels of speech. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
Marking the 57th anniversary of Somalia's independence, the top UN official in the country urged all Somalis to seize a moment of opportunity and work towards peace and stability.
Somalia’s current government structure should be scuttled and replace with a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet like that of as Finland. The legislature should be changed to committee-style system similar to Switzerland’s. The prerequisite for lasting world peace is global democratization, and Somalia’s government should begin drafting a basic constitution with the above features as part of a paradigm shift toward democracy. It should adhere to the core values of One World under One Set of Laws and be revised as necessary to stay in sync with changing times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
Venezuela has been in turmoil for months, with regular street demonstrations and more than 70 protest-related deaths since April.
To avoid continued tensions and grievances, Venezuela should improve its political system to avoid violent suppression of protest. It should pattern its policies regarding referendums after those of Switzerland and implement democratic elections like those of California. All citizens should be able to express their opinions through the ballot box instead of taking to the streets. In addition, elections should be free of charge for all candidates. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
The Philippines’ new foreign secretary, Alan Peter Cayetano, warns against Asean becoming a ‘theater of geopolitical rivalry’
In the interest of peace and stability in the South China Sea, China has a responsibility to maintain peaceful relations with its neighbors. Articles 4 and 6 of the 2002 Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea call for peaceful settlement of territorial and territorial disputes (Article 4) as well as joint development and sharing of resources in line with the UN Charter’s "One Human Family" ideal. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.
