Amid his push for a digital public infrastructure , House Speaker Martin Romualdez says that he would move to empower women "through the flywheel of digitalization".
"French Gates' words ring true in that even in this day and age, women are still marginalized professionally. We cannot keep ignoring this unfortunate situation if we are to truly have an inclusive society. Luckily, digitization can be the great equalizer and place women on equal footing as men in terms of work opportunities, power, and influence," the Speaker said in a statement Monday, April 17.
"Women empowerment has definitely worked in our collective favor in the House of Representatives. To see this replicated across all workplaces through the flywheel of digitalization, will make French Gates proud," he said. Romualdez subsequently suggested that the Philippines set up a DPI partnership with the United State and India.
