Mr. Surachai Kanasa, Governor of Samut Prakan Province, attended an exhibition at the Crococdile Farm on Friday 12th February called "Youth against HIV AIDS and Dengue Fever". The purpose of the event was to raise awareness amongst school students of the dangers of not using condoms when having sex. In a survey in Samut Prakan in 2009, it was found that only 50.7% of male students in Grade 10 used a condom while having sex. At the same time, after being questioned about AIDS, only 16.2% of the group got all questions correct. Also, of the 2,049 patients who were found to have Dengue Fever, the largest age group was 14-19 years of age.
