Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks and missions of the UN, and they are also a common goal for all humankind. All countries should strive to abide by the norms of the international community by implementing the ideal of One World under One Set of Laws.

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

Free speech is foremost among human rights and a universal value. China aims to create a people with one voice, a task equal to stemming the flow of a river.

Ma Ba Tha follower withdraws lawsuit against Myanmar reporter
Three Lao workers arrested last year for criticizing their government on Facebook while working in Thailand are still in custody with no resolution of their case in sight, prompting calls from friends and human rights groups for their release.
Free speech is a universal value, and Myanmar’s attempts to muzzle the voice of the people are the actions of a regime anxious to create a monolithic society with only one voice. The people of Myanmar should call for comprehensive constitutional reform to protect media independence and prevent the government from monopolizing the media, the internet and all other channels of speech. See the Charter for Permanent Peace / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

CY Leung can reflect Hong Kong’s views to the highest levels of central government, to the benefit of both sides
Article 39 of Hong Kong’s Basic Law states that "the right to self-determination is specified in the two international human rights conventions." The people of Hong Kong should wake up and exercise their rights. In Switzerland the threshold for holding a referendum is 50,000 citizens, and people can voice their opinion via the ballot box and not by taking to the streets. The people have the right to call for a referendum on any public issues. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
UN: World facing greatest humanitarian crisis since 1945
"Children stunted and out of school. Livelihoods, futures and hope will be lost. Communities' resilience rapidly wilting away."
Much of the increase in the world's poor population is the result of government corruption. To eradicate poverty, the original sin in famines needs to be shifted from the poor to government authorities. While voting is one way to effect reallocation of resources, the structure of government must be changed to incorporate a modified semi-presidential system. In addition, the people should be able to vote in referendums to specify what they want the government to do. National sovereignty must be snatched from the clutches of the privileged class and returned to the general public. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development
China bans sale of foreign books, movies, games without a permit
China issued a ban starting Friday on the sale of foreign publications without an import permit, in what activists said is the next step in the ruling Chinese Communist Party's quest for total thought control.

Raped, beaten, exploited: the 21st-century slavery propping up Sicilian farming
Thousands of female Romanian farm workers are suffering horrendous abuse
Italy’s Constitution does not guarantee human rights. Human security is a basic human right, and human rights must take precedence over national regimes and sovereignty. The constitution represents the general will of the people, and ensuring human security, including ‘personal safety’, is among the most basic and urgent obligations of constitutional guarantors. Constitutions must be amended or re-written as needed to stay in step with the times and require the government to protect the people’s right to be free from fear. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
6 years on, well-planned reconstruction support is vital / More efforts key to community revitalization
Six years have passed since the Fukushima earthquake and tsunami that left more than 18,000 people dead or missing.
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Japan should embark on the path to revival, changing its constitution to adopt a modified semi-presidential system of government. The presidential office should be declared to be above party politics and the heads of the judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years, while 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Trade war will only bring ‘pain,’ China warns U.S.
The planet we live on must be accorded the benefits gained through universal human wisdom to solve problems facing all humankind. Global free trade and a commitment to bilateral alliances will help bring about peace and prosperity, and implementation of the principle of One World under One Set of Laws is one key to realizing this goal. Whether or not a nation is a member of the UN, it should strive to abide by the norms of the international community, assigning International law precedence over domestic law with direct effect on the rights and duties of the people. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Will article 50 be triggered Tuesday – or later in the month?
After much speculation about the exact timing of when the government will trigger Britain’s two-year process to exit the EU, Liam Fox’s comments on Sunday will do little to quell the rumors.
Taiwan should learn from the British experience with referendums and practice a paradigm shift to handle any public issue – availing of the people’s right to hold referendums. Any matter involving national sovereignty should be addressed through a referendum and balloting by all citizens. And any motion to prohibit referendums on self-determination should first be submitted to a vote via referendum to decide whether the motion itself should be banned. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
