<![CDATA[The existence of affirmative policy rules applied in 2009 election has been successful to increase the number of women in parliament. Within the scope of Banten Province, the quota for women's political participation is still not fully utilized by Bantenese women, although there is a significant increase in the general election in 2004 with the election in 2009, and placing women in formal political space such as Governor, Mayor, and Vice Regent in the two districts.

These conditions proved that increasing women's political participation in Banten still puts oligarchs at the local level (political family, a network of local elites and the ruling political party affiliation).]]>
