Thai MSW and migrant MSW primarily from the Shan, Karen & Burmese regions will benefit from this animation available in Thai and the 3 regional dialects. There are no recent reports of HIV prevalence among MSW in Chiang Mai, but in Bangkok the prevalence is reported to be 15.4% (venue-based) and 22.6% (street-based) suggesting prevalence among Chiang Mai MSW could also be dangerously high. Mplus+ understands Thai and Migrant MSW work across a variety of venues including bars, saunas, massage parlours, karaoke lounges, and brothels. Additionally, many work independently on the streets, in parks or cinemas. Because of the many different kinds of MSW that work in these establishments for different reasons, most work in isolation and many do not fully identify themselves as sex workers. As a result, they have little access to specific sexual health education or services and are most often underrepresented in current programming and advocacy (TREAT ASIA, 2006). It is important to point out that HIV epidemics move from vulnerable groups to the general population when there are links between the two. The link between MSM, MSW and women in Thailand is well established. Thus, women who have sexual relationships with MSM or MSW stand to benefit from the animation as well, as it aims to educate MSM and MSW who perceive themselves as low risk and who are not clear on the specifics of transmission in respect to the women they have sex with. These often cohabitating, primarily heterosexual, female partners/spouses now represent one-third of all new HIV/AIDS cases in Thailand (Dowsett, Grierson, & McNally, 2006).
