Gay hotline

You may know that we are a gay organization that publishes the magazine GAYa NUSANTARA and undertakes an effective HIV/AIDS prevention program. We have always held your paper in high regard in terms of your commitment to educating the public on HIV/AIDS issues as well as issues relating to vulnerable populations, including who we work with, and originate from, gay men.

I read with great interest your report on April 30, 1996, on the new AIDS hotline of the Indonesian AIDS Foundation. You mentioned other AIDS hotlines in the piece, but I was disappointed that you did not mention our well-utilized hotline, Hotline GN, which in addition to gay issues also tackles HIV/AIDS issues.
