THAILAND/LAO PDR REGIONAL
The Thai-Cambodia border is considered the epicenter for the development and spread of antimalarial drug resistance. PMI recognizes that the best and most sustainable approach to addressing multidrug resistance is by eliminating malaria altogether. The national malaria programs of Thailand and Laos have their sights set on malaria elimination by 2024 and 2030, respectively. PMI works with partner organizations and the national malaria programs of Thailand and Laos to strengthen national malaria surveillance systems, to improve the national program capacity for quality laboratory diagnosis, and to ensure that all patients have access to critical anti-malarial drugs and other malaria services.
