  "account": "Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim highlighted the increasing number of women in the education sector, demonstrating their capability to take on greater roles in other sectors as well. Addressing the need for more women to serve in the nation's security and defense sector, including specific legal fields, Anwar stressed that although certain military roles require high physical abilities, it should not prevent women from joining such areas. According to Astro Awani at a discussion session with National Service Training Program (PLKN) 3.0 instructors in Training Center 515, Kuala Lumpur, women should be given appropriate opportunities to contribute to national security and defense sectors based on their abilities and expertise. Responding to a question from a PLKN instructor about the challenge of producing more female leaders, particularly in the security and defense sectors, Anwar remarked that the higher proportion of female university students and their ability to compete with men in certain exams and tests prove their capacity to play a more significant role in other sectors as well.",
