I Believe In the Power of Democracy
Democracy of US and most of the western countries is examplary.Non democratic countries like China, some countries of Africa etc must follow the path of democracy if they really care about their citizens.

@SW-User they must. That's the duty of governance.If they don't, they should be questioned.

@thePearl Yeah, we all agree they [i]should[/i], but how do you convince Xi Jinping or Kim Jong-Un? These are dictators with absolute power and authority, who're responsible for awful human rights violations. The reason they do what they do is because they don't care about the people, they care about the power. And in China's case, we're too scared to actually do anything about it because their role in the global economy is so pivotal.

@SW-User let's talk about China first.
1. the biggest market will remain biggest even if China goes through a period of instability or if it becomes democracy.
2. Other notorious countries like N. Korea Pakistan depend a lot on China for their survival. Infact China heads the pool of such countries.
3. Who can bring the change.can't we bring the change.If millions of people of different countries start talking about it regularly even on digital platforms, wouldn't that be a good start.

Democracy is not static. It develops. If you compare China of today with China in 1967 there is some progress.
