Bravo PIUMA for keeping us informed!
It is lovely to hear that the president will be visiting Makete. Being one of the most affected with HIV/AIDS the president must discuss the trend of the pandemic and how to solve the problem one would guess.
One thing I will not be surprised to hear is the District governmental official will not allow PIUMA to meet the president. I will be surprised because PIUMA being one of the PLWHA groups that is fighting the disease on the ground they should be having right and correct answers to the problem.
PIUMA should not loose it spirit, by their volunteerism had proved to have solved problem of many.
