From the fight against polygamy in the 50s to the ambivalence felt by working mothers in the 90s, this book cuts right to the core issues, combining hard facts with a sympathetic portrait of the changing needs and status of women in Singapore. The book traces hitherto uncharted territory, the history of the women's movement in Singapore. The movement's rite of passage, despite a few hiccups, is a necessary response to the needs of Singapore women under varying social contexts. A prime mover of the women's movement in the 90s, the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations is a national council committed to the cause of protecting and promoting the rights of Singapore women and propelling the women's movement into the next millennium. -- Contents: New Country; Foreword from The First Lady of the Republic of Singapore; Preface; Singapore Women: Looking Ahead [Moving on to the Next Millennium - Visions of Women Leaders]; Singapore Women Today (1990-1993) [An Overview - Making Their Mark - Call for More Women Politicians - Choices Through Education - Working Women: The Vital Force - Tribute to Professor Chan Heng Chee]; Singapore Women: Looking Back (1950-89) [An Overview - Towards a United Voice - Metamorphosis of Singapore Women - In the Thick of Politics - Laying the Foundation - The Rocky Road to Success - Tributes to Madam Chan Choy Siong and Mrs Shirin Fozdar]; Affiliates of the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations; Bibliography; Index.
