Community perception and preventive practices regarding malaria in low-endemicity regions on Indonesian Kalimantan border adjacent to high-endemicity zoonotic malaria in Malaysian Borneo
This study observed an exceptional level of malaria awareness among these communities. However, it is crucial to emphasise the importance of continuous malaria surveillance within this community for maintaining the current low malaria cases and achieving the goal of malaria-free status in the country by 2030.
