Large representation of women in the new Upper House

After quickly glancing at the new Jordanian senate formed yesterday, I couldn't help but notice that there are now six women in the senatorial mix. Please correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm not sure about this, but isn't this the largest representation of women the senate has ever had?

It seems the terrorist attacks prompted Jordan to push ahead with promised reforms, which I expect will include greater women's participation in politics. Not bad!
