One of Samoa's leading HIV AIDS campaigners says he's perplexed and disappointed about a decision by South Pacific Games Organisers to remove female condoms from gift packs intended for athletes. Samoa has imported 50,000 condoms for the Games. And as part of its safe sex campaign, the Samoa AIDS Foundation made up safe sex kits to be included in the official Games gift packs for athletes and officials.

Presenter: Clement Paligaru
