Is a 1985 hit single from the Eurythmics and Aretha Franklin.

The Malay Mail Reports, Women have a lesser chance of increasing their pay over time, the Khazanah Research Institute (KRI) found in its latest study on socio-economic mobility in Malaysia.

According to the study, which compared adult Malaysians' socio-economic stature to that of their parents when the latter were younger, women find it harder to move up the income structure than men.

“Women are less upwardly mobile than men. Policies focusing on removing gender barriers and encouraging higher female participation in the labour market should be continued,” said the report titled “Climbing the Ladder: Socio-Economic in Malaysia”
