the  Elimination  of  All  Forms  of  Discrimination  against  Women  supported  by  UN  Women;  in
                  national level, we have Indonesian Law Number 7 of 1984 on Women Rights Policy supported by
                  the  Ministry  of  Women  Empowerment  and  Children  Protection  Republic  of  Indonesia.  To  be
                  concluded  that  those  existing  legal  framework  have  been  enforcing  and  regulating  the  women
                  protection implementation in which compel us to take action to eliminate the discrimination and
                  violence against women.
                         The third reason is that women have equal rights to men. The reason why I argue this idea
                  is that as women are human beings and guaranteed to possess special rights based on existing legal
                  framework; thus there are so called women rights and gender equality which is contradicted with
                  the understanding and practice of discrimination and violence against women. To strengthen my
                  argument,(7)   .................................................................................................................................................   In   the
                  future,(8)  ..............................................................................................................................................................  In  term  of
                  education, the government today provides an education for women as high as men, it can be proven
                  through the education rate of women in Indonesia is almost the same with education rate of men.
                  In addition, nowadays we can see there are a lot of female scholars in Indonesia for example Sri
                  Mulyani  Indriwati,  our  Minister  of  Finance,  Mama  Dede,  Indonesia  Female  Muslim  scholar  and
                  many more. In regard to economic development, today there are many SMEs ran by women which
                  provide them a network for women economic empowerment. In Scandinavian countries, we can see
                  that  even  the  political  participation  between  men  and  women  is  slightly  the  same  in  numbers.
                  These  situations  reflect  us  that  as  there  are  women  rights  and  gender  equality,(9)
                  ................................................................................................................................................
                         In conclusion, from all arguments previously I can sum up that there are three reasons why
                  the discrimination and violence against women should be eliminated. These are because women
                  are victims of close-minded people, women are also human beings, and women have equal rights to
                  men.  To  complete  my  speech  today,  I  would  like  to  suggest  you  that  (10)
                  ........................................................................................................................ Let’s start to take action to bring women
                  together and therefore we all human beings, men and women can live in peace together.
                  I think that’s all from me, and now I would like to give an opportunity for the audience that
                  probably have question about my speech. Please!
                         Wassalamualaikum warrahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

                     A.  by the abundant evidences, it is only fair   F.  From my point of view, the close-minded
                         to  eliminate  the  discrimination  and       people  refer  to  the  people  who  refuse
                         violence against them.                        the  existence  and  role  of  women  and
                                                                       treat  them  inappropriately  in  today’s
                                                                       world.
                     B.  The  evidence  of  me  stating  that       G.  we  can  also  help  to  eliminate  the
                         argument is that we have the Universal        discrimination  and  violence  against
                         Declaration on Human Rights of 1948           women by promoting and protecting the
                                                                       women rights in our daily life
                     C.  what is so called as discrimination and    H.  Based  on  what  we  have  seen  in  the
                         violence  against  women  should  be          reality,  I  couldn’t  agree  more  to
                         eliminated                                    eliminate  the  discrimination  against
                                                                       women
                     D.  a  feminist  activist  who  believes  that   I.  I  would  say  that  women  rights  and
                         there is no big  wall separating woman        gender equality will require the freedom
                         and man to live in peace together             for women to express their opinion and
                                                                       action
                     E.  I think this phenomenon is definitely not   J.  these things will provide them the equal
                         making any sense to be happening these        opportunity to get education, economic
