Miss Universe Philippines 2020 Rabiya Mateo expressed her honest thought and opinions regarding the remark of President Rodrigo Duterte that the Presidency is not for women.
In an online interview with Missosology, Rabiya took the “Q&A Challenge”. One of the questions that was asked to Rabiya was “President Duterte recently made a remark that the presidency was no job for a woman because of the emotional differences to men. What are your thoughts on this?”
To which Rabiya shared “well I do respect the President but I completely disagree with this thought. In our country, we already have two female leaders and by doing that, women are as capable as men in handling a nation. I just want to give an example of what happened in New Zealand in conquering COVID virus in which their female leader was able to nurse a newborn, but at the same time, she was able to become a mother to her land”
“I am a woman and I believe that my emotion do make part in my leadership skills. And I have so much heart and I have so much calling in being a leader actually, and I do disagree with this thought. I can lead my country because I have the power to do so.” Rabiya added.
