Rivoluzione in vista all'Assemblea popolare egiziana, la Camera bassa del Parlamento, il cui rinnovo è previsto per il 28 novembre, quando avrà inizio il lungo processo elettorale. Un sistema di “quote rose” allow a block of 64 deputies out of 508 deputies to sit in a ring, having convinced the voters in those governorates historically conservative. How to
Asiut in the rural heart of Egypt, where Mona Al Qurashi, politburo member of Al Wafd, the Delegation, the nationalist opposition Liberal Party, and candidate in the upcoming election: "So far Asiut has always been represented only by men, it was a seat inherited from generation to generation by a few families, now things will change. "
Now Mona must compete against other women, a thousand, for one of 64 places "dedicated" to the MPs, but his problems are more, difficult to eradicate: "One of the obstacles that I am encountering is that they are veiled, all women are Asiut. However, Christians and intellectuals appreciate my courage and this gives me energy. "
Mona is not an outsider in his family: his father, Al Qurashi Pasha, was a founder of the District of Asiut and who knows what exactly this does not help her illustrious precedent "to be accepted by the voters."
But there are those who would compete on equal terms without being part of a protected reserve, as Manal Abul Hassan, who in Nasr city on the outskirts of Cairo, will seek to challenge the Minister of Petroleum Sameh Fahmy.
For now, the commission di vagliare le candidature non ha ancora resa nota la lista definitiva degli idonei a presentarsi.
Per Manal, esponente della Fratellanza musulmana (ma dovrà candidarsi come indipendente, perché la confraternita non è legale in Egitto), ormai «le donne partecipano a qualsiasi aspetto della vita sociale e non ci sono discriminazioni fra uomini e donne».
Un punto di vista che spiazza gli osservatori della scena politica egiziana, abituati a constatare, forse anche troppo, la penalizzazione delle donne man mano che nel Paese prende piede l'islamizzazione della società.
Eppure, sono proprio le donne militanti nelle associazioni islamiste a combattere in prima linea per i loro diritti, ma senza flag-wavers. Putting in the foreground rather than the commitment to youth, education, economic development.
Women's National Democratic Party (NDP) of Hosni Mubarak, however, as numerous and present in a widespread manner throughout the country, have now opted for a little combative tone, perhaps by candidate "blind" and safe to get in Parliament without difficulty.
A Sharqiya, for example, 131 women NDP are well determined to compete: for them, the race is all internal, they are aware that we have smoothed the way for the People's Assembly in relation to representatives of the opposition candidate lame from the outset.
The development of a portion mandatory for the ladies of the policy would not have been possible without the intervention of the National Council for Women, which launched a communication campaign sweep across the country at the rate of a mere slogan but an acute "partners in life, companions in Parliament. "
Part of the initiative has provided a "training" of the electric field also, sometimes because they are the ones most reluctant to elect more women to lack confidence, low esteem, most deep-rooted prejudices than in men.
A paradox, however, that well explains why Egyptian women, although mostly in relation to their peers on 80 million citizens, we can scarcely difendere i propri diritti. Secondo il quotidiano filo-governativo Al Ahram, solo il 41% degli iscritti al voto di fine novembre sono donne.
La nuova legge “rosa”, approvata in giugno, ha provocato aspri dibattiti: c'è chi, infatti, ritiene sia controproducente, destinata a ghettizzare ancora di più le egiziane. Altri invece sostengono che sia l'unico modo per garantire la presenza femminile e addirittura “obbligare” le donne a impegnarsi in politica in tutti i governatorati.
Ma solo il tempo dirà se l'esperimento darà gli effetti desiderati dalla normativa: per due legislature le signore saranno “accompagnate” nel loro ingresso in Parlamento, poi dovranno camminare da sole a testa alta.
