Situation in regard to estabishment of a monarchy is not changed much... A possible compromise or intermediate step may be the declaring of Yuan President for life and by giving a life tenure to the President in the new consitution. If this is done the change to a monarchy could easily by accomplished at some future date.

Situation in regard to estabishment of a monarchy is not changed much... A possible compromise or intermediate step may be the declaring of Yuan President for life and by giving a life tenure to the President in the new consitution.

A possible compromise or intermediate step may be the declaring of Yuan President for life and by giving a life tenure to the President in the new consitution.
