As the world celebrates women, the Center for Women’s Resources called on the public to reject “undemocratic, misogynistic, and militarist” governance.
“Women, who are often household managers, are doubly-burdened by skyrocketing prices of basic commodities amid joblessness and depressed minimum wages. In 2020, CWR estimates that 19.54 million women are economically insecure,” said Cham Perez, executive director of CWR. “Women farmers from Luzon have reported even lower palay prices, as low as Php 9 to Php 13 per kilo. This has kept farmers buried in debt, amid landlessness, lack of agricultural support, and lack of access to services,” she explained.Perez likewise slammed the “confusing” quarantine classifications, “slow” delivery of vaccines, and the government’s failure to implement mass testing and contact tracing two years into the Covid-19 pandemic.
Moreover, Perez decried the passage of Anti-Terror Law, saying it will only “sow fear and silence dissent.”
