Nevertheless al-Eryany is expressing the women hope that the upcoming parliamentary elections would witness participation of the woman in the light of the election platform of president of the republic that stresses on empowering the woman politically and economically with a proportion of 15% in the state sectors.

She indicated that the Yemen Women Union has presented suggestions on the draft constitutional amendments that included more than 26 articles containing the addition of some definitions that were understood by men only.

In an interview to almotamar.net al-Eryany considered the proposals presented by the union as aimed at removing difference after the constitution as it is a legal due drawn up for a long time period and upon it systems and regulations are built as well as the laws.
