The Basantpur Durbar Square on December 1 2007 was cluttered. There was unusual crowd gathered..consisting of people from all walks of life...of all ages...The crowd there had come to witness the celebration of the World AIDS Day 2007 organized by SAARATHI Nepal...This year's slogan is :TAKE THE LEAD:STOP AIDS:KEEP THE PROMISE:LEADERSHIP. Lots of youngsters were there to witness the event.A skit was presented to let the people know more about the disease,which was well received by the audience.Celebrities like Rajesh Hamal and Om Bikram Bista graced the event with their presence....hopefully their involvement must have made a positive impact on the minds of people regarding AIDS, its causes and the support required to make the affected people feel more accepted. Every year promises are made but sadly nothing constructive happens.Why does this happen?Is it ignorance?Is it lack of commitment?Is it indifference?i do not have enough answers to them but i just wish more is done to combat the deadly disease...I hope they by December 1st 2008 when i again write this blog, i can express positivism over the same issue...till next time...Take the lead...Stop AIDS..Keep the Promise...Leadership!
