Supporting People Living With HIV in Sarawak

There’s no denying that we’ve made significant progress in tackling the stigma against people living with HIV as well as improving support and access to healthcare for these individuals in the past decades. None of that would’ve been possible without the role of community organisations. In conjunction with World AIDS Day, we speak to one such organisation here in Malaysia, the Sarawak AIDS Concern Society, with exco member Dr Yuwana Podin joining us to share more about their work.
