Stop AIDS. Keep the Promise

Today's World AIDS Day. I was watchin' MTV and they were showing all these HIV programs, about the social stigma, the discrimination, the mis-information and mis-understanding about how HIV and AIDS happens, and the myths about how HIV is transmitted.

I'm still quite surprised how clueless people are about this serious pandemic. Like people in the UK for goodness' sake, they don't know if it's a growing problem there. = =" I mean, not pointing fingers or anything, but I'm just astounded. Kids as young as 9 in Thailand are being taught and educated about sexual behaviours, contraception, HIV etc etc

Well, I just wanna say I'm not afraid of HIV-positive people.

Silence = Death

So speak up.
