Senior Minister Ieng Mouly also thanked the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the LHSS project for strengthening the HIV/AIDS response system to be more efficient, effective, and sustainable.
The Chair of the NAA also recommended three important points for everyone to examine:
1. Review the achievements of joint efforts.
2. Rebalance challenges or risks and opportunities.
3. Recalibrate by reviewing strategies to accelerate the response and achieve goals quickly by redefining the new priority actions that we will have to be done in the next five years.
