MAF chairman Prof Datuk Dr Adeeba Kamarulzaman said the idea behind the partnership was to combat the growing cases of sexually transmitted HIV infections in the country and educate the public about safe sex. With numerous projects running concurrently throughout the year, Dr Adeeba said MAF’s goal was to get 90 per cent of people who are HIV positive to know their status and get them to be on treatment.
“MAF has a long history of partnership with The Body Shop and its owner Datin Mina Cheah, who is a former Trustee of the foundation. Its contribution to the campaign is an extension of the condom manufacturer’s ongoing efforts to stand against HIV/AIDS and other pertinent sexual diseases.
