FIVE empowered Filipinas who navigated different paths and have hurdled different obstacles to earn their rightful place under the sun gathered on Tuesday to share their inspiring stories in The Manila Times' 'Women Making A Change For Women' forum.

PBA party-list Rep. Margarita Nograles, Maria Victoria Españo, Nikki Tang, Jenny Lin Maaño-Ngai and Agnes Gervacio — women from different fields with different backgrounds — gave a glimpse of how they were able to show the world that they, too, can be achievers and power movers, and command as much authority as the men.
