Men responsibile for all the world's evils: Annette Lu

Vice President Annette Lu (呂秀蓮) yesterday blamed men for all the evils in the world, and urged more women to enter politics to achieve peace.

"The great forces of nature and the great transformations in the 21st century show us that the structure with men in power is crumbling in many countries," Lu told a conference on Asian women's participation in politics.

The responses of governments to the December tsunami, hurricanes in the US and Latin America and the South Asia earthquake highlighted the problem, Lu said.

"Ninety-nine point nine percent of wars are waged by men, so women should join politics and become policy-makers because only women bring peace to the world," she said.
