Aside from the PM and DPM, there are currently 12 ministers. If Pakatan Harapan's manifesto calls for at least 30% of women to be in the cabinet, shouldn't we see 4 (rounded up from 30% of 12 = 3.6)?
[a lil' aside, why is Maszlee the Education Minister when a better experienced man in the Education portfolio, Saifuddin Abdullah, is available? Besides, Saifuddin doesn't cosy up to Zakir Naik]
Some capable women would be (below list not exhaustive and confined to only PKR and DAP as I'm not familiar with Pribumi and Amanah):
(a) PKR - Nurul Izzah (3rd term as MP)
(b) PKR - Fuziah Salleh (2nd term MP, environment involvement)
(c) DAP - Teresa Kok (5th term MP, Parliamentary Select Committee member, champions law reforms)
(d) DAP - Hannah Yeoh (2 term ADUN, DUN Speaker, MP)
(e) Teo Nie Ching (3rd term MP, involved in health services and water, and women's human rights)
(f) Alice Lau - Sarawakian (2nd term MP, involved in indigenous people's rights, poverty alleviation, rural development and education)
We need a minimum of two or better, more women in the cabinet. I propose:
Fuziah Salleh (PKR) - Minister of the Environment,
and/or
 |
good to have a Sarawakian lady in cabinet |
Alice Lau (DAP) - Minister of Native, Aborigine & Minority Affairs
and/or
Teresa Kok - Minister of Law
Haaaah! Kaytee now getting into the spirit of Reformasi.
ReplyDeleteThat's called Constructive criticism and no more Night Soil Carrier.
Wakakakaakaka
His arm sudah sakit with all those stones throwing, hihihi. Lagi pun his bile has been more or less emptied...all the bitterness sudah vomited out. But then let's not be too quick jumping to conclusion...he has big bile pouch...getting replenished and we will see more potshots, not less...hehehhe

Some people are born to be Prime Minister...some people are born to be Night Soil Carrier.
DeleteStill a lame leopard of jibby's bootlicker!
DeleteTeresa Kok, I am told, is definitely in the next batch.
ReplyDeleteNurul is not in, as her father is going to be Next PM.
Everybody knows it takes a woman to keep the "House in Order". With her two young kids Hannah may use a rotan. In Parliament she can use the gavel(?) to bang the heads of the predominantly male MPs. What a strong anti-mysogynic message that would be: A Woman is in Charge ! Go go Hannah for Speaker !
ReplyDeleteIsn't the 30% women in Cabinet was one of their Manifesto, or something?
