O2C's RED GLAM PARTY - in conjunction with World's AIDS Day
HIV/AIDS was nonexistent in Malaysia until 1986. Between 1986 and December 2000, this country, which has a population of nearly 25 million, recorded more than 38,044 cases of HIV/AIDS. That number has continued to grow, climbing to 51,256 cases by 2002 and 58,012 by 2003. As of September 2004, a cumulative total of 61,486 HIV-infected individuals had been reported to Malaysia’s Ministry of Health, of whom 8,955 had AIDS and 7,083 had died.
The majority of the cases are detected through screening processes conducted at drug rehabilitation centers, prisons, and antenatal clinics, or through tests done on those whose spouses are HIV-positive. Although the government initiated a free screening program in June 2003, only a small number of those considered to be in “high-risk groups” have volunteered to be tested.
Malaysian women are vulnerable to HIV infection due to a lack of knowledge and understanding of its cause, risks, and modes of transmission, fear of stigma and discrimination, and their inability to protect themselves from an infected sexual partner. For some, it is taboo to talk about sex openly. This has encouraged the growth of the epidemic and has affected the community. The 2005 Durex Global Sex Survey, the world’s largest sex survey, revealed that 35% of Malaysians admitted to having unprotected sex without knowing their partner’s sexual history. HIV infection continues to grow at a rate of about 4,000 cases per year, indicating that preventive measures have not yet had any impact..and report has that, in 2015, the number would increase to 30,000 cases per year...
World AIDS Day is observed every year on December 1st. The World Health Organization established World AIDS Day in 1988. World AIDS Day provides governments, national AIDS programs, faith organizations, community organizations, and individuals with an opportunity to raise awareness and focus attention on the Global Aids epidemic.
In conjunction with the World AIDS Day which is happening in all over the world, the O2C (our social club) is organizing a party which is called the RED GLAM PARTY to raise some funds to support KASIH..Sabah AIDS Foundation..This event also wishes to create awareness among our local people, especially the younger generation about the importance of AIDS Knowledge...
