Abstract

Success in the national control of malaria during the past decades has led to the reorientation of Thailand's program toward the elimination of this disease. The country established and implemented a National Malaria Elimination Strategy, resulting in a substantial decline in cases. Although the reduction varied, Sisaket Province stands out as a success. In accordance with the national strategy, the province adopted a 1-3-7 surveillance strategy and engaged in multisectoral collaboration, positioning itself to achieve malaria-free status and advancing to the prevention of re-establishment (PoR) phase. Scaling up this approach and applying the lessons learned from the success in Sisaket Province, as a solid foundation, could prove beneficial at both the national and international levels.
