THE Institute for Democracy and Economic Affairs (Ideas) is disturbed by the statement made by Cuepacs secretary-general Ahmad Shah Mohd Zin regarding the number of women in the civil service. We reject discrimination in any form, be it gender, religious or racial.
Ideas recognises the immense contribution of women to our nation’s development. We applaud Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil’s response to Ahmad Shah’s statement, as well as the Government’s commitment to empower women via the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development.
