The aim of her visit was to launch the Clinton Health Access Initiative new Cambodia 3.0 Strategy, which aims to have zero new deaths, zero new infections, and zero stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS.
Yesterday she visited Cambodia's National Center for HIV/AIDS, Dermatology and STDs (NCHADS), where she praised the country for its efforts in fighting the spread of HIV/AIDS.
Chelsea met with some 50 NCHADS staff and then held a news conference where she highlighted the progress made by the Cambodian authorities.
'I would like to thank Cambodia for being an example and effectively a challenge to the rest of the global community,' she said.
'I would also like to recognize Cambodia for not mistaking progress for success and I think that is similarly a very real and rare achievement, that Cambodia has come so far and it is still so singularly focused on eliminating new HIV/AIDS cases by 2020 including eliminating effectively mother to child transmission is remarkable,' she told a news conference.
