First Filipina IPU President

edit

Great honor to our nation: During 112th Inter-Parliamentary Union Assembly in Manila, Cayetano was elected President of the 10th Meeting of Women Parliamentarians during the sidelines of the annual meeting. On April 17, 2008, Pia was elected for a 2 year term, president of the Committee of Women Parliamentarians of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) during its 118th General Assembly in Cape Town, South Africa. As the first Filipino and Asian to head it, she ran unopposed and takes over from Uruguay's Monica Xavier.[1] --Florentino floro (talk) 06:09, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

The refs indicate that Cayetano did not come up with the idea. She only presided at the opening because of her position as Chair of the Senate committee on Health and Demographics. The Bank (if notable) could have its own article, but Cayetano's article is not the place for it. maxsch (talk) 18:25, 17 August 2008 (UTC)bReply
