> the decline of respect to human rights
> the weakening of democracy and the rule of law
> peace and security
> HIV infections

As you have observed, criminal cases are getting higher. People are very unruly. Democracy is overexercised by many. HIV infections increase in number due to overemphasis and uncontrolled urge of sex. The threat of war in the Korean peninsula, civil war in Syria, North Korea crisis, the battle of Marawi in the Philippines surely are manifestations of conflicts that deter peace and security.
