PM: Women’s participation is key factor for development of societies and countries

SANAA, March 08 (YPA) – The Prime Minister, Dr. Abdulaziz Saleh bin Habtoor, on Tuesday considered the participation of women in various fields of life as one of the main factors for the development of societies and countries.

During his participation in the women’s conference organized by the Ministry of Human Rights today on the occasion of International Women’s Day under the slogan “Women and men… one responsibility and one entity”, Dr. bin Habtoor explained that celebrating this day through this event and its axes gives it an additional advantage.

He pointed out that the encroachment of enemies and the circumstances that Sanaa is going through “will not make it forget its duties towards women, who represent half of society.”

The prime minister affirmed that the women’s sector in Yemen, in general, has not been given sufficient opportunities to participate in public life, which requires standing in front of this sector with high responsibility.
