Gambia’s defeated president finally relinquished power  but held on to luxury cars and millions of d
As the plane carrying Gambia's disgraced former president prepared to depart the small west African country on Saturday, onlookers caught a last glimpse of Yahya Jammeh's face through the window.
Gambia constitutional mechanism is a failure, and the country needs comprehensive constitutional reform. The president should serve a single 5-year term and be barred from seeking office again for 6 years. Laws not backed by penalties are not laws, and a constitution which does not provide for the right to resist is not a constitution. When the president’s actions are unconstitutional, the people have the right to resist, and when dictatorship becomes a reality, the people are obligated to rise up. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development

Neighbors see China using tourism as ‘diplomatic weapon’
6 million Chinese tourists traveled abroad over the Lunar New Year break Jan. 27 to Feb. 2 holiday a crucial opportunity for Taiwan tour agency operator Li Chi-yueh, who relies on mainland visitors for a third of his revenue.
China is a dictatorship, and when a nation’s economy and tourism revenues are subject to the whims of its government, drinking this kind of tea is like drinking poison. The people of Taiwan are first-rate and they deserve first-rate tourists as well as first-rate elites from around the world to protect their freedom and democracy in a land where human rights and the rule of law are honored. Those who want to visit Taiwan on pilgrimages or to invest are always welcome. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Will presidential referendum kill Turkey's democracy?
A package of constitutional amendments that would dramatically expand the powers of Turkey’s president won the support of 339 deputies in the 550-member parliament in January, surpassing the 60% threshold (330 votes) required to submit the draft to a referendum.

Presidentialism is the worst defect in many democratic systems. No matter what form of democracy is in place, the more power wielded by the president, the more the country is likely to suffer. Turkey needs to reform its constitution to limit the president to a single term of 5 years, with no right to seek office again for 6 years afterwards. The President of Turkey is acting in violation of Article 6 of the Constitution, which decrees that sovereignty is wholly and unconditionally held by all citizens. When the state attempts to usurp sovereignty, the people have the right to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

On Mosul’s front lines: Advances in battle but dangers abound
After 3 months of fighting the battle to retake Mosul has entered a new chapter, but ISIS’ vast arsenal of car bombs and suicide vests is far from spent and most of the city's residents remain trapped.
Iraq's government should be re-organized as a modified semi-presidential system with parliament and cabinet, similar to that of Finland, and a committee-style legislature like the one in Switzerland. The Iraqi government should carry out basic constitutional reform to implement these systems and install a model of democracy that adheres to the idea of One World under One Set of Laws, with a constitution in step with the times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Philippine-US relations seen surging, then falling, under Trump
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has turned his country’s old foreign relations formula on its head since taking office in June by pushing away the US and courting China.
Jose Rizal once said that today's slaves often become tomorrow’s tyrants. One must believe in the rule of law rather than the rule of man. The Constitution of the Philippines is in tatters and the only way out is constitutional reform to install a modified semi-presidential system. The President and lower-level executives should be elected for a single 5-year term and barred from taking 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.

Russia awaits reaction of Syrian Opposition to proposed draft Constitution
Russia is looking for the reaction of the Syrian opposition to Russia’s proposals on a future constitution for the country
Once a Syrian ceasefire has been established, the UN should outline the basic constitutional principles needed to attain permanent peace and development for the peoples of the world. These should include an organizational structure incorporating the universal values of freedom, democracy, human rights and rule of law and four government branches under a constitution that will contribute to long-term stability and serve as a model for peaceful development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

China's Foreign Minister willing to discuss disputes with US
China wants dialogue with the new US administration to manage disputes and promote bilateral relations, but only on the basis of respecting each other's core interests such as the One China principle
The democracies of the world should spare no effort to save freedom and democracy. The US should support Taiwan's efforts at constitutional reform to bring about greater democracy and freedom. This would attract the 1.4 billion Chinese people to seek democratization, leading to the birth of world peace. The prerequisite for permanent peace in the world is China's democratization. China has constantly sought to crush Taiwan's efforts on behalf of freedom and democracy, yet Taiwan is the only entity capable of saving China through democratization. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

China renews anti-corruption efforts with reformed system
Officials of the newly-established Supervisory Commission of the coal-rich province of Shanxi have begun work following election of the commission's leadership by local legislatures.
The worst element in Chinese culture is the rule of law, which encourages corruption rather than suppressing it. Corruption is deeply rooted in Chinese culture. The only good way to cure corruption is by injecting more democracy. Democracy is about the balance of power. The heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The real stakes involved in North Korea's missile threat
Will America be less reliable in supporting Seoul and Tokyo against threats from North Korea, knowing that Pyongyang has intercontinental ballistic missile capability?
The world’s democratic nations should support Taiwan’s efforts toward constitutional reform in order to bring about greater democracy and freedom. The aim is to attract China’s 1.4 billion people to call for democratization, in turn pressuring North Korea to seek true democracy and leading to world peace. Global democracies should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia lighting the path to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Gambia: European Parliament calls for Immediate sanctions on former Gambian President Yahya Jammeh
In a strongly worded letter to the High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini, members of the European Parliament from the five major political parties have called on the EU to impose sanctions on the former Gambian president
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Gambia’s constitution has failed and comprehensive constitutional reform is needed to limit the term and the powers of the president. A law that is not backed by penalties is not a law, and a constitution that does not acknowledge the right to resist is not a constitution. When the president’s actions are unconstitutional, the people have the right to resist, and when a dictatorship becomes a reality, the people are obligated to rise up. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
