1st of december is observed as world's AIDS day. AIDS is acquired immune deficiency syndrome, and HIV is human immunodeficiency virus. to tell you the truth, i wouldnt know much about AIDS/HIV if not because of my brother, roddy. all i knew is one can be infected with HIV through three major ways.
1. unprotected penetrative vaginal/ anal sex
2. sharing of contaminated needles/ syringes
3. from infected mother through giving birth and breast feeding.
and these info instilled in my head because there was a big billboard in front of my primary school, which i used to read everyday while waiting for kakak to fetch me.
this year's theme is Universal Access and Human Rights, where it is our rights to have access to HIV and AIDS treatment, prevention and care.

why do i suddenly talk about HIV/ AIDS? well, thanks to roddy for the awareness. he is actively involved with this because he was once incharged of the HIV/AIDS control division in his ministry. he has been planning to help in creating the awareness among the comunities, since few years back.
last sunday, in conjunction with the World AIDS day, the plan had became reality. some of us volunteered ourselves to help out with the activity which was held in gaya street. we gave away 500 free cupcakes with red ribbon taped on each of them (our target: little kids) and good quality condoms (our target: adult male) to whomever looked interested with what we have to give. =) we need to let the society know that HIV infection can happen to anyone and also HIV/AIDS patients need our support, care and love.
classic lubricated condoms, contura contoured condoms, and cupcake
we met lots of people while giving away the condoms, which i understand, because it is very unusual to have someone giving you free condoms..hehe..but, it is also surprising that not many people are interested with our free cupcakes.
ah meng: HIV/AIDS saya prihatin anda bagaimana?
