Forty years on, Women’s Aid Organisation’s vision has remained the same: Making Malaysia a better country for women. The vision of the women’s rights group is grounded on the belief that when the safety and well-being of women are protected, the country will be in a much better state for everyone.
“When things are good for women, it augurs well for the society as a whole,” says WAO executive director Sumitra Visvanathan.
