Tabling the Right Type of Sexual Harassment Bill

The announcement by Women, Family, and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Rina Harun that the Sexual Harassment Bill will be tabled in Parliament this year was welcomed by many, and it is hoped this legislation will address inequalities faced by women. We discuss the need for this bill to be tabled, and why it needs to be as inclusive as possible.
