Children with AIDS in VIetnam

Traditional propaganda
(Ma tuy= drug ; if i remember correctly the message says "it's not ok to try even once)

Here's an interesting article about the situation of aids-infected children in HCMC ("the most progressive region in the country in terms of HIV/AIDS advocacy"):

When classes opened across Vietnam on August 17, few students were as excited — or as nervous — as a group of 15 HIV-positive children who had finally been given permission to attend school. For the past two years, the Ho Chi Minh City orphanage where they live had been lobbying to enroll them in a public primary school. Now that the day had arrived, the children were so excited that many were up before the sun, already dressed in the new clothes the nuns had bought for the special occasion.

A more friendly poster (bao cao su = condom)

A modern poster about getting tested for free (i think)
There are also young people on this kind of poster...all in all it's much more appealing than traditional one but does it work?

Gay cruise anyone?

 According to Fridae, the first gay cruise in Asia will take place on the 28 March. It interrogates me on several aspects.

First, are countries such as China, Vietnam and especially Singapore "happy" to receive such guests? It's no secrete that many asian countries have no homosexuals or just prosecute them if found.

Second, i'm still prudish (no sauna... yet >.<)  but i can guess that such a cruise would a huge and long  group sex party, isn't it? (Anyway i don't see the point of cruises)

Third,  omfg... it's 2 weeks without a post and you know the less you post the less you feel like that's why i post that though there was a lot of interesting news topics to discuss...
