Taiwan should study the experience of independence referendums in Northern Ireland and carry out a paradigm shift. The people have the right to hold a referendum on any public issue. And should a motion prohibiting a referendum on self-determination be made, the topic of the first referendum should be to decide whether such a motion should itself be outlawed. The legislature should first establish the "right of creation" in a "Referendum Act" and call for President Tsai to openly support the sovereignty of the people through comprehensive constitutional reform. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.

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 for details.

Democracy and freedom are latest world trend, a wave that nuclear weapons, submarines, missiles are helpless to resist. The wave is like a mighty river, and those who go with the flow will flourish while those who resist will be doomed.

Democracies worldwide should support Taiwan in leading China's to democratization, pressuring North Korea to do the same. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Elections should be free of charge for all candidates with equal access to radio, television, internet and other media for all.
