Chapter 2. Standards for Decentralization in National Organization
Article 5. Legislative Development Standards under Permanent Peace
Preface
Who is plundering our human dignity? Who is kidnapping our people's sovereignty? Who is monopolizing our constitutional rights? Who is making evil laws and encircling and suppressing us? Who is the enemy of our peaceful development? The answer is not "others". It is our "own party government," a government supported by the hard-earned money of our taxpayers.
Although they all understand the following: the state and the government have rights related to equality in the outside world, they have no rights domestically. Yet our ruling authorities regard their obligations as rights and erode all resources. This is the essence of a party government which is suppressing the people [1] . Transparency International (TI) points out that in the past domestic and foreign surveys have shown that the public sector considered to be the least clean of all countries is the legislature; the legislature is the place where the nation's fate is determined and an exchange where justice and evil are traded for. .
Therefore
The Charter for Permanent Peace / Human Constitutional Standards / Al--purpose Strategic Constitution notes that ultimately we humans have only two paths to the future: peace or destruction. In the face of endless nuclear weapons development, once nuclear warfare erupts, everything will be ashes. Permanent Peace is life, is truth, is the way forward. The Charter for Permanent Peace is the true path to eternal life for human beings; it also offers minimum constitutional standards at the super-national, national and sub-national levels; it is also a general guide for political entities to complete power.
In light of the international focus on national competition, there are blind spots in the software such as democracy and human rights, and a vacuum where the rule of law should be. The ignorance of autocracy is always the enemy of human peace, and even overlooks the lessons of history: Any battle will eventually return to the battlefield of "institutional performance". Here, we will verify the goodness of the system and decide on rule for handling social unrest. This Constitution is intended to eliminate the blind spots, fill the vacuum and ensure that this constitution will be a pole star to guide all people to permanent peace.
Inasmuch as eliminating nuclear weapon-backed autocracies cannot be achieved solely using ‘democratic’ nuclear weapons, it depends on democracy and the rule of law. To this end, we must do it. In the past, the best constitutions and laws in the world have flowed into Taiwan. In the future, the best constitutions and laws in the world will flow out of Taiwan, providing an environment necessary for the permanent peace of humanity. Shared laws will facilitate the return of rule of law and help consolidate human civilization.
Inasmuch as in One World under One Set of Laws, international law is of course higher than domestic law, this create legislative competition between international organizations and state organizations. That is to say, if the matters in question affairs are those of a global or regional international security organization, legislative power should belong to the international organization; if there is a national identity, it should belong to the legislature; and the same applies at the state, province, city or local level for those who belong to these councils. This is a road to truth that we humans must follow after all.
Inasmuch as national legislative organizations are mainly of three types: Conference-focused centralism, committee centralism, and modified committee centralism. The Permanent Peace Development Association has comprehensively analyzed and compared the advantages and disadvantages of each type. For details, please refer to "Comparative Table, Appendix 20, Global Congressional Legislative Systems" and "Comparative Table, Appendix 21, Comparative Laws of the World".
Inasmuch as current national congressional election systems can be summarized as: majority vote systems, proportional representation systems, mixed systems, and other types. These four types are subdivided into more than 16 election systems. The Permanent Peace Development Association has analyzed their advantages and disadvantages, the results of which can be found in "Appendix 22, Global Congressional Election System Comparison Table".
Therefore, this modified committee-centered system consists of 12 standing committees, 3 ad hoc committees — global policy committee (§6), universal law committee (§7) and international law committee (§8) — forming a matrix of checks and balances, like 12 quasi-government/shadow cabinets/12 courts/12 congresses with national global policies, universal laws and international law. Thus legislation is more flexible and adaptable. With the ability to adapt to a wide range of capabilities, we compare and analyze the results through institutional comparisons and comparisons between countries. Such a mechanism has none of the fatal shortcomings common in contemporary legislation, and its advantages are unprecedented. Refer to [Attachment Figure 1: Schematic diagram for improved legislative membership system].
In addition, the legislature must establish a complete network of global regulations so that the internet can be used to learn and think, letting us humans compare the strengths and weaknesses of global regulations. We can thereby increase our wisdom, discover new truths, honor old values and build One World under One Set of Laws for the ages. We offer a peaceful legal system that will serve as an ISO constitutional standard (Figure 5-1) and eventually become a new absolute law (mandatory law) of the International Convention on the Law of Treaties (Article 64).
Regardless of which system through which everyone in the world can grasp the application, it is called the Charter for Permanent Peace / Human Constitutional Standards / All-purpose Strategic Constitution / Global (multiple/common) law, marking the end of old-age legislative systems and the beginning of a new era in legislative processes. It will unlock the shackles that still hobble mankind in the world’s last 50 autocratic dictatorships. For this reason, Taiwan and the 2/3 of the world’s people living under the threat of authoritarianism will lose only the iron curtains and walls, violence and lies that constrain them. Others will lose nothing, instead winning prosperity and contentment in one fell swoop, to live in harmony with all mankind and live with the truth [2] . Together, we will achieve a life of true sincerity.
Figure 5-1 National legislation shall be compatible with "cyclical upgrading" of more than 20,000 international standards (ISO), and undergo "standardized integration" to yield legislative and constitutional standards suitable for permanent peace and sustainable development.

[1] Chen Keng-chin, former Director of Personnel Administration at the Executive Yuan, appealed to all the current military cadres at the General Assembly of the National Federation of Military, Police, and Retired Persons General Assembly on February 17, 2017, "Let’s steal and take all we can, and slack all we can. Let’s drag this government down. ” Jason Hu, Vice Chairman of the KMT, and Han Kuo-yu, a candidate for the party chair, also shouted approval.
[2] BBC Chinese News 2015/6/9: A Freedom House survey showed that at present, two-thirds of the world's population live under dictatorship; 2 billion people in the world live in a high-pressure ruling environment; and 106 dictatorships or semi-dictatorships account for 54% of the world's nations.
[3] Co-opetition in Legislation refers to the same matter or behavior, but involves legislative standards for mutual competition between legislative powers at the supra-national, national and sub-national levels (including state, provincial, SAR and/or local levels). To this end, it is clear that the legislative power at the supra-national level is greater than that at the national level.
[4] According to Kelsen's General Theory of Law and the State, "Domestic law is entrusted by international law", a position which can be used to establish a supra-national organization for permanent peace — the UN.
[5] According to Roscoe Pound, the law has been linked to civilization from certain times. In the past, the law was the product of civilization; from now on, the law is a means to maintain civilization. Looked at from this point of view, the law is a means to promote civilization." Co-opetition in Legislation" represents changes in time and space which enable the international, national, regional or city levels of government to maintain the law at the optimum point of co-opetition to create maximum civilized effect and enable the greatest benefit for sustainable development.
[6] Xi Jinping noted on January 21, 2017, that "innovation" is the most important remedy for the global economy and politics.
[7] See the Grand Justices interpret the Constitution No. 603 (Taiwan).
[8] At present, there are 24 official languages in the European Union. Various meetings are held every day in the European Parliament, the European Union Executive Committee and other institutions. The discussions cannot go on without interpreters. Each of the 24 languages can be translated into another 23 languages, so there are as many as 552 combinations, but the actual numbers is larger due to the situation when Chinese or Arabic is needed. There is even sign language interpreters to serve the hearing-impaired.
[9] See §84 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties.
[10] See The Modified United Federal Assembly System in the Parliament is divided into 12 committees according to social functions. Each has a "social relationship of labor under division" - that is, people have different abilities and needs, and they must exchange services to meet these needs; the government divides functions according to functions. For the 12 committees, each has a "social relationship with the same needs" - that is, people have common needs and must live together to meet the needs. The above-mentioned "matrix" relationship must be reconciled through the Parliament and the government. Léon Duguit, Traite de droit constitutionnel , Paris: E. de Boccard, 1921-25.
[11] A group of candidates or a group of political parties participating in the election will be combined on one ballot. The voters can only choose one of them or a representative of the political group. There are 12 committees in the corresponding cabinet of the Parliament. The chairmen are elected by the committee. For example, three groups (1/4) of the chairmen are elected each year. Each group chairperson assumes that there are three groups running for the election. The total number of candidates is 9 and they are combined in one ballot. Voters can only choose one of them. This is the "combination of one-vote single-ballot system"; the merger of one-ballot single-selection system can avoid the monopoly of the big parties. It means when parties that are non-primary major political parties stand for election, the minority force can effectively participate in politics and exercise checks and balance, which is much stronger than the weak minority parties themselves.
[12] Rousseau pointed out that the people are free only when they choose their representatives. After the representatives are elected, they are not free. Although we can use the methods of recall, initiative, and reconsideration to control the representatives, the effect is limited, and it does not change the fact that the rights cannot be exercised. However, through the "invention" of "interim re-election", it will not only absorb new public opinion, but also allow good policies to continue.
[13] In the future, urban competition will be the trend of global competition. The Parliament needs half of the parliamentarians to take care of the whole city. New Zealand has a population of 3.85 million in 2000, which is equivalent to the population of Taiwan's New Taipei City. The election of its parliament is MMP (Mixed-Member Proportional Representation).
[14] Former New York State Speaker of the House of Representatives Sheldon Silver (two-year term) was found guilty of corruption, fined US$5 million and sentenced to 7 years (2018/7/29). In accordance with §152 of the Swiss Federal Constitution, the legislative spirit is that a president or deputy president cannot run for the same position for four years after his/her term ends.

You can take part at: workshops and community meetings, stakeholder meetings and roundtables, online consultations, community reference groups, advisory panels, drop-in sessions, surveys, school workshops, door-knocking and notification.
