Source:

Senate Minority Leader Alan Peter Cayetano called on President Aquino over the weekend to appoint a female commissioner at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) in compliance with the Magna Carta for Women which bats for greater participation of women in government affairs.“I’m urging the President to appoint a female commissioner now that there are two vacancies. We do not have a female commissioner right now. And if we will follow the convention on the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women and the Magna Carta for women, greater participation of women is being encouraged and protected,” Cayetano said.
