Women’s groups not confident with new women’s ministry appointments, point out lack of experience

Monday, 16 Mar 2020 06:49 AM MYTDemonstrators take part in a march in conjunction with International Women's Day in Kuala Lumpur March 9, 2018. ― Picture by Shafwan Zaidon

Meanwhile Siti Zailah was criticised for her infamous statement in 2013, where she had suggested a female dress code to prevent indecent dressing in public. She reportedly said such a move would also curb rising levels of sex crimes and prevent sexual harassment. “If we have a minister, full or deputy, who does not fully understand women or gender, then we are not confident that they can perform and progress with women-related issues,” she added.

“The vision to end child marriage in Malaysia is not a shared goal between SIS and PAS, one of the political parties that make up the PN government. The current Islamic Family Law Enactment of Kelantan sets the minimum age for marriage at 18 for boys and 16 for girls. “We are disappointed that no real attempt was made to improve women’s participation in decision making in parliament.

She cited that it is the 25th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, the most advanced blueprint for achieving gender equality in the world, and Malaysia is one of 189 countries that will be reporting in New York, in September this year, of progress made in commitments towards gender equality.

Nyamuk2 DAP...puii

Skrg pakatanharapan_ ejen so called Human Rights for Woman sket2 dilepaskan utk anjur demo dan protest terutama hal ehwal berkaitan yg menyentuh hal ehwal Islam atas nama kebebasan seperti SIS, Siti Kassim, Lawyer Melayu dll ISMAweb_net ISMAJohor abimalaysia ikatanmuslimin

I think the group does not knowledge about administration. Do you know backbone of ministry is KEtua Setiausaha and Ketua Pengarah.. kementerian ws working for a week without Ministers.. don't be games for political..

Just too bad ladies. They are the best from PN and there are no one else

The minister was underperforming all this while, hardly make herself available to the constituents...

See you all in Sg Buloh...😁

Seems more like a cult group of girls denied of marriage by men.

PAS I no women's rights! Stuck in the dark ages, Isam is not the answer everything, Just because you believe in something it does not make it right. Western values of fairness, equality between sexes, freedom of worship and lifestyle are the best way .

go and march for better hygiene and increase awareness in cleanliness...washing hands with soap often etc...should actively promote cleanliness and pray for this virus to be over.. Plse set yr priorities right...

Politicians are appointed to ministries as a reward to their ownselves. To think for the betterment of the rakyat let alone a gender? Pigs can certainly fly.

izzaizelan kantoi. LOL Keep up the good fight!

Can’t blame community. Its 2020. Women need a brave and aggressive minister to uphold our rights. And she clearly didn’t have that. So sad. Not saying she’s bad ad her work. She need to show that she’s fierce & fearless.

Not only women's group not confident with that useless ministry. Even the men who holds women in high esteem have no confidence in that minister. In fact Brutus ministers are just a bunch of makeshift clowns to begin with.
