Chew: Women candidates want level playing field

KUALA LUMPUR: Political parties should give “winnable” seats to female candidates, just as they would give to the men, said De­­puty Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun.

“Don’t just field women candidates only in difficult seats for the general election. Give them a fair chance to contest in seats that they could win in,” she said.
