Stop Aids. Keep the promise. That’s the slogan for this year’s World Aids Day, which is still building on the theme of ‘leadership’ as per last year. And in case you are wondering, this theme is actually a call to leaders and decision makers to deliver on their promise on Aids, which includes the provision of universal access to treatment, care, support and prevent service by the year 2010.

This year’s commemoration will be held at Berjaya Times Square a day earlier on Nov 30. The ‘Mini Ride for Life’, which is sort of like a cycling for awareness activity going around Bukit Bintang, will kick start the day at 7am. Don’t miss the ‘One Life’ exhibition where you walk through a display of images donning headphones. A person living with HIV/AIDS will narrate his life and react to the images as seen through his eyes.

On top of that, people living with HIV/AIDS have also put together a play titled ‘Fallen Leaves’. And don’t miss the ‘condom dress’ walking down the runway during the closing fashion show.
