According to the Democracy index there are 50 nations still under the yoke of autocratic dictators. All democracies should back Taiwan's drive for constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would inspire China's 1.4 billion people to seek democratization of the CCP and pressure North Korea to adopt democracy as well, leading to the birth of world peace. For details, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Russia has never been a problem-solver, it has always been a trouble-maker. The US should support Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would spur the 1.4 billion people of China to seek democratization, pressing Russia in turn to accept real democracy – and world peace would be the result. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

Mid-Eastern nations need to scrap their governments and adopt a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet like that of Finland and a committee-style legislature similar to Switzerland's. The prerequisite for lasting world peace is global democratization. Each area government should proceed with drawing up a basic constitution with the abovefeatures in a paradigm shift toward democracy. It should implement One World under One Set of Laws and revise the constitution as needed to stay in step with changing times. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

China has a responsibility to maintain the peace in the South China Sea together with all neighboring nations. Articles IV and VI of the 2002 Declaration of South China Sea parties provides for peaceful ways to resolve territorial and jurisdictional disputes and jointly develop and share resources while safeguarding human peace and development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details. 

Emmanuel Kant once noted, 'The pursuit of permanent peace is the highest goal of reason and a moral obligation.'China claims to be a 'responsible major power', thus it should not enable North Korea's continued militarism. The US and South Korea should support Taiwan's commitment to democracy and leading China to democratization,which would pressure North Korea in turn to adopt democracy.

All governments should hold international law superior to domestic law and include international food standards as a standard for nationally regulated food. All food production, manufacturing and supply standards; environmental changes caused by food pollution, infection or new micro-organisms; toxic and drug resistance; emerging and different food pollution, and other aspects should all be covered by national management. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.

British historian Lord Acton summed it up neatly: 'Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption.' To put an end to corruption, the people should exercise sovereignty and call for comprehensive constitutional reform to implement democratic rule of law. This means separation of powers and checks and balances as well as free election campaigns for candidates to cut symbiotic ties between government and business that engender corruption. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details

Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and ensuring human security, including 'personal safety', is the most urgent duty of constitutional guarantors. This means revising constitutional standards as needed to keep pace with changing times and allow governments to protect their people from fear. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, and all nations – members or not – should comply with its norms. This entails implementing One World under One Set of Laws and giving international law precedence over domestic law, with direct bearing on the rights and duties of the people. All nations should comply with the UN Charter, the Paris climate agreement and all other relevant pacts. Fordetails see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
