If the rest-of-the-world can get its head out of its ass, a fork of AOSP with an open governance and a commitment to opensource and open platform, so that every one benefits from it. You wouldn't need that much from each country to get more resources on that AOSP-bis than Google will ever be able to pour on its homebrew version.

You make a rule that public service can only buy devices using AOSP-bis based systems (or even better: states choose their own AOSP distros) and quickly, Google has no choice but to follow your version, not the other way around.

don't give Google the monopoly

better: "You make a rule that public service can only buy devices using libre systems"

If you fork, by definition, they no longer have the monopoly. The fork does not even have to follow Google's updates.
