“…In attempting to identify successful remedies for the underrepresentation of women, studies have tended to focus on success stories -countries where women's numerical representation is consistently high (see, for example, Dahlerup and Freidenvall 2005, Freidenvall 2005, 2006 or has increased sharply (see, for example, Dahlerup and Freidenvall 2005, Htun 2003b, Jaquette 1997, Powley 2005, strategies by women's organizations (see, for example, Fick et al 2002, Goetz and Hassim 2003, Jaquette 2001, or individual women who have managed to enter the political sphere against all odds (see, for example, Richter 1991, Thompson 2002.

“…As described by the political scientist Mark Thompson (2002), this 'tapping in' on the popularity of one's father or husband is not something novel but occurred in several Asian countries such as Bangladesh (Begum Khaleda Zia and Sheikh Hasina Wajed), Burma (Aung San Suu Kyi), Malaysia (Wan Azizah Wan Ismail), Pakistan (Benazir Bhutto), and the Philippines (Corazon C.
