It is the first time in country's history that women have been able to hold any political office.

The monarch, seen as a proponent of gradual reform, has also granted women :
the right to vote and stand in the next municipal elections,
scheduled for 2015.

too little too late.
the more power the arabian monarchy cedes the worse its going to get for then. they are not doing this because they are as strong as they used to be. if they were they would not give up an inch.
now deh are making concessions it means deh have grown weak and are seeking to control change by making the changes themselves. yet they can only go so far. but the people want and need a lot more freedom than they can concede.
the end must be the elimination of the monarchy. and the more change the monarchy concedes the faster will be the tide that will wash away their kings. ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

i totally agree.
also they must be looking on how the rest of the fullah world is getting swept up on baseless claims of no democracy etc and decided to hire a few women to do this and that.
these ppl are a bunch of joke
Re: swears in first women ! - mapoui - 02-20-2013
