Brunei Darussalam AIDS Council Launches Website
By Huraizah Ahmad

Bandar Seri Begawan - The Brunei Darussalam AIDS Council (BDAC) recently launched its new website at www.bdac.ws.

The new website is in line with the council's aim to assist in educating and creating awareness amongst every individual in the country on HIV/AIDS and its prevention while assisting those infected and affected with HIV/AIDS.

The new website provides a more useful and convenient form of information retrieval for the public on HI V/AIDS. It also includes information on HIV/AIDS among youths and women as well as myths versus facts on HIV/AIDS. BDAC was officially registered on July 22, 2000 after discussions of the Council of Women of Brunei Darussalam on October 1997.

The council hopes that the website will be able to reach out to those with queries and those in doubt about HIV/AIDS in general. "It is important to keep in mind that HIV/AIDS symptoms are almost identical to those of many other illness, so that is why getting tested is the only way to know for sure.

"Very often people who have symptoms similar to those of HIV/AIDS worry unnecessarily. Only by taking the HIV test can someone reliably know his or her HIV status. Everything else is just guessing and HIV is too important of an issue to leave to chance," said a spokesperson from BDAC. For more information e-mail enquiry@bdac.ws.  -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
