The project co-organized by Zonta Bangkok 1 and Zonta BKK 5.  Participants are approx. 200 women which are from bank staffs, working women in S&P Restaurant, and Horkanka University students.  The training help them understand what to do: i.e. how to get away from the attackers in close contact, and learn to use everything around them as weapon (i.e. pen/pencil, high heel, books, elbow, knee, 5 fingers poke into attacker's eye as 2 finger may missed).  But most important note for women "don't panic" and "run away" from the attacker as quickly as possible!!
