From July 22 to July 25, six members of the JCIE/FGFJ Diet Task Force visited Cambodia and Vietnam to speak with community leaders, aid workers, and national policymakers working on AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis as well as to visit treatment sites and communities dealing with these diseases. The bipartisan group was headed by JCIE/FGFJ Diet Task Force Director Ichiro Aisawa and included Jun Matsumoto, Gaku Hashimoto, Tsuyoshi Yamaguchi, and Mitsunori Okamoto from the House of Representatives, as well as Masaaki Taniai from the House of Councilors. The trip was organized in cooperation with the Global Fund and made possible by support from the M·A·C AIDS Fund.
