KUALA LUMPUR: The female labour force participation rate in the country has now reached 56%, and the government is targeting an increase to 60% by 2030, said Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri.

Nancy said this target cannot be achieved by the ministry alone but requires the commitment of all parties, including state governments.
