received a link from mylla earlier this week – i actually read on it in the papers but thought the petition was only for banking industry workers.

figured it wouldn’t hurt to read what exactly is contained in the petition.. and ended up putting in my signature.

i never realised that we were that behind in terms of awareness on rights for working women… i do know that over in the west, moms are given more than the 2 months leave that we malaysian moms are currently entitled to. although i am yet undecided when the next offspring will be in the making (since the latest addition is only 3 mths++ old), i would definitely appreciate the additional 1 month as it would help ease me into getting back to work.

though, if compared to my mom who used to get only 40 days maternity leave – 60 days seems like a luxury already. oh well. we should keep moving forward for the betterment of the future

if you would like to support the petition, go to the site. spread the word!
