South Africa to Spend More Fighting Crime, AIDSOctober 31, 2001 South Africa plans to boost spending to fight crime and the AIDS pandemic over the next three years, Finance Minister Trevor Manuel told Parliament Tuesday. Provincial governments spent $430 million this year on HIV-related disease. That spending will increase over the next three years, Manuel said, though he gave no specific figures. An estimated 4.7 million South Africans are infected with HIV. Spending on the government's integrated HIV strategy was to rise from $14 million this year to $35 million in 2002, $47 million in 2003 and $60 million in 2004, according to the budget plan.
