“We must wage war against the disbelievers who dominate our lives.
Terrorist attacks in Britain have deepened doubts about Muslim immigrants, who are seen by many as threats to others’ socio-economic well-being and national security. The solution is to implement the principle of One World under One Set of Laws and give precedence to international law over domestic law, with direct effect on the rights and duties of the people. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
In 2015, the conviction rate in criminal trials in mainland China was 99.92 per cent, with 1.23 million accused being convicted. High conviction rates were seen as vindicating the way the authorities handled cases.
The world is constantly changing and problems arise endlessly. Judicial reform is only a part of the solution. China's problem is that it needs full constitutional reform to institute election of the heads of the judicial and procuratorial branches; judicial policies, operations, personnel and budgets need to be reviewed every 5 years and publicly reviewed to keep pace with the times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
I refer to the letter by Winnie Chui, for the secretary for security (“Permit scheme allows mainland residents to reunite with families in Hong Kong”) .
Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law states that the right to self-determination is specified in the two international human rights conventions. The people of Hong Kong cannot take this right for granted. In Switzerland the threshold for petitioning for a referendum is 50,000 signatures, and with that citizens can express their opinion by voting rather than taking to the streets. The people have the right to hold referendums on any public issues. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
A judge in Argentina has ruled that former president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner should stand trial on charges of financial mismanagement.
Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Argentina’s constitutional mechanism is dysfunctional and comprehensive constitutional reform is desperately needed. Changes should include electing the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches in alternating years and having 1/4 of all MPs face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
A young man I know joined the armed forces to fight in Afghanistan because he wanted to have an experience that money couldn’t buy.
The best way to ensure that taxes will be used for peaceful purposes and solving fundamental problems, nations should follow the principles of One World under One Set of Laws and building toward a common destiny for humankind. This includes electing the heads of the legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial branches in a global contest and according international law priority over domestic law with direct effect on the rights and duties of the people. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development
Exposure to air pollution increases risk of aggravating Parkinson's disease and may cause neurological disease progression, a study showed Friday.
Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN. The best way to tackle air pollution method is by implementing the core values of One World under One Set of Laws and assigning international priority over domestic law, with direct effect on the rights and duties of the people. Citizens should be able to monitory government operations to ensure they are in line with the norms of the UN Charter and other agreements. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Recently the Liberal Party suffered a landslide defeat in the state elections of Western Australia. While local issues dominated, Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s falling popularity also contributed to the loss.
The best way to promote reforms designed to benefit the people is to amend the constitution so that the heads of the legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial branches are elected in alternating years and 1/4 of all MPs face election each year. The Prime Minister and the Minister shall chosen from among committee chairs in Parliament. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development
Life for many Russians has become harder since 2014, and yet Vladimir Putin, who has effectively been in charge of the country for 17 years, has approval ratings that have not dipped below 80% since the annexation of Crimea three years ago.
Jose Rizal, the ‘Father of the Philippines,’ once said, “Today's slaves often become tomorrow's tyrants; trust in rule of law and not in rule of man.” Russia’s constitution is dysfunctional and the cure lies in adopting a modified semi-presidential system. The president, mayors and other officials should serve single 5-year terms and be barred from seeking office for 6 years afterwards. In addition, the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
As the Sewol ferry, which sank and took 304 lives nearly three years ago, was being pulled up slowly at 3 meters (9 feet) per hour Thursday, public attention shifted to how much the ferry would be able to tell us about what caused the disaster
The South Korean ferry disaster shows the needs for the principle of One World under One Set of Laws and working toward a common destiny for humankind. It should prompt the South Korean government to recognize that international law is higher than domestic law and should have direct bearing on the people and human rights. South Korea needs to improve its human rights standards to the levels of the highest international standards. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
A common misconception that needs to be corrected is that South Korea’s per capita national income surpassed that of North Korea in 1974. Socialist states often exaggerate statistics. A group of South Korean scholars analyzed the statistical bubbles and re-estimated North Korea’s growth rate, and South Korea was already better off than North Korea by 1968.
Jose Rizal, the ‘Father of the Philippines,’ once said that “today's slaves often become tomorrow's tyrants, so believe in the rule of law and not in the rule of man.” The constitutions of North and South Korea are dysfunctional and the only cure is reform to adopt a modified semi-presidential system. The president, the mayor and other officials should serve a single 5-year term and be barred from seeking office for 6 years afterwards, and the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years.
