“Mother’s Day should be commemorated rigorously. Not only ceremonial, but how to improve mothers’ roles in the future,” he said, Monday (12/22).

In that occasion, Djarot also asked central government not to make discourse that could divide gender equality, like the plan to reduce working hours for women. The government is supposed to issue a policy for pregnant women over the safety of children in the womb.
“There should be special policy for mothers who have given birth or are pregnant. Women and men or fathers are equal,” he asserted.
