KUALA LUMPUR: MCA should consider giving a special award to Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh to encourage more Malaysian women to see her as a role model, says MCA secretary-general Datuk Chong Sin Woon.
Chong also highlighted the story of Katherine Johnson, an African-American mathematician and physicist who faced racial and gender discrimination at the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration during the era of the moon landing. “Therefore, the persistent pursuit of gender and racial equality is a constant struggle that all women-based organisations must fight for,” he added.
He added that the brickbats hurled by political parties over religious issues not only destabilised the nation but also tore society apart, victimising non-Muslims. “If they are not subject to sufficient checks and balances, or if they remain silent like some political parties after taking office, the rights of minority groups will be violated and muted,” said Chong, who added it was precisely at this critical moment that Wanita MCA must remain vigilant on the frontlines of the fight for women’s rights.
