Japan to Make 'Substantial' Contribution to UN AIDS Fund

From U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

June 27, 2001

"Despite its own extremely severe financial situation, the Japanese government is determined to participate actively in global efforts against infectious diseases," former Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori on Monday told the UN conference on AIDS. Mori, representing Japan at the UN General Assembly, outlined Japanese government efforts in combating the global HIV/AIDS epidemic, including a pledge last year to allocate $3 billion over five years to help fight AIDS in developing countries. Mori did not give a specific figure on Japan's contribution to the global fund, merely saying the share would be "substantial."
