| In Malaysia, HIV/AIDS was not
reported in this country until December 1986. As
of June 2007, a cumulative total of 78,784 HIV infected
individuals have been reported to the Ministry of
Health Malaysia (inclusive of AIDS) of whom 13,121
were notified as AIDS cases and 9,586 have died.

| |
| This year theme for World AIDS
Day is "Leadership. Stop AIDS: Keep the Promise".
The 2007 theme, "leadership", highlights the need
for innovation, vision and perseverance in the face
of the AIDS challenge. |
| |
|
|
| The campaign calls on all sectors of society
such as families, communities and civil society organizations
- rather than just governments - to take the initiative and
provide leadership on AIDS. Please check this link

| The Asian Harm Reduction Network
(AHRN) has been selected as a lead agency to collect
and collate input and feedback from civil society
in East, South East Asia and the Pacific regions
as part of the six-region global consultation process
leading to the "Beyond 2008" Forum. |
| |
| The process will also involve
compiling data on NGOs and civil society from a
questionnaire that has now been posted online in
all six official UN languages at www.vngoc.org.
