The government will consider increasing the quota of women representatives in the Senate, the upper house of Parliament. Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak, said this could happen if the government received a strong mandate in the coming election. He said more women participating in politics would better reflect the electorate and make the political process more inclusive, hence strengthening democracy.
