Woman...Ladies...where is your voice!!!

This report from STAR following the appointment of the New Cabinet is such a sexist report. It made me puke! - The sad part is that nobody has actually raised an issue about it..so here I am with my two cents worth................!

Women's appointment .. so few of them is an issue to pick up...not their dressing or lack of it ...please get our perspective right!

Women...STAND UP for GENDER EQUALITY....!!!!

Senator Heng caught off-guard
KUALA LUMPUR: Senator Heng Seai Kie had planned to look her best at the swearing-in of Wanita MCA chief Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun as a senator yesterday but she ended up “less dressed” than she intended.
This is because the Perak Wanita MCA chief, who is usually immaculately dressed, was too stunned to make herself up after hearing of her appointment as the new Deputy Information, Culture, Arts and Communications Minister.
A senator since November 2006, Heng, the Wanita MCA secretary-general, never expected to be included in Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s new Cabinet line-up when she received a call yesterday.
“It was quite unexpected for me,” said Heng, who showed up at the Senate wearing a simple long-sleeved blouse and pants.
The senator was looking plain without make-up although she managed to complete her hairdo at a salon.
