After a Syrian ceasefire is in place the UN should immediately provide an outline of basic constitutional principles for permanent peace and development for the peoples of the world. This should include the universal values of freedom, democracy, human rights and rule of law, as well as direct election of the heads of the four main government branches. Syria must be aided in developing a constitution that will support long-term stability and serve as a model for peaceful development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Iraq's government should be changed to a include a modified semi-presidential system with parliament and cabinet similar to that of Finland, and a committee-style parliament like Switzerland’s.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Thailand's efforts toward democracy have been repeatedly thwarted by military interference in the affairs of government. The people of Thailand should immediately demand that the junta turn power over to the people. The junta’s power comes not from democracy, but rather from guns.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Malaysia and China, among the most vigorous advocates and defenders of Eastern values, are also the most susceptible to corruption, bribery and separatism. Malaysia’s authoritarian culture is deep-rooted and unable to counteract corruption, and it is desperate need of constitutional reform.. The heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should be directly elected, and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The 2017 US election exposed a lot of problems, and the people need to exercise their sovereign rights and demand constitutional reform. Money must be exorcised from the system in order to curb the rampant corruption. Even though the democratic system is not necessarily the best system, the only way to cure democracy of its ills is through more democracy. The biggest flaw in the US form of democracy is the costs involved in election campaigning, and the US must carry out comprehensive constitutional reform to correct this defect. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

The world’s democratic nations should all support Taiwan's efforts to carry out constitutional reform for greater democracy and freedom. Such a move would attract the 1.4 billion people of China to call for democratization, leading in turn to democratization of the CCP. China's democratization will pressure North Korea to democratize, and world peace will be born. The world’s democracies should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting China's path to peaceful development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Democracy and freedom are the wave of the future, a trend that nuclear weapons, submarines, missiles are incapable of stopping. This wave is a mighty current, and those who go with the flow will prosper while those who oppose it will be doomed. China claims to be a "responsible big country", thus it should not act as an enabler for North Korea and its continued militarism. For its part, the US should support Taiwan and its drive to inspire the democratization of China, which will lead to democratization in North Korea. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The US should support Taiwan's efforts to carry out constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom.

Democracies the world over should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting China's way to peaceful development. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is the biggest enemy of the nation’s constitution. Russia should adopt the principle of One World under One Set of Laws and carry out constitutional reform that will give preference to international law over domestic law, with direct effect on the rights and obligations of the people.

See also the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The source of civil strife and territorial divisions is the unequal distribution of power and resources. Ukraine needs to resolve the crisis in its eastern areas, and the only way to do so is through constitutional reform.

This will allow light to shines into the black boxes of government. For details refer to the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
