Never go to the public toilet alone. Always move in groups of three. Ensure there are

toilet.

B. MUGGING

In the event when someone attacks you and demands your valuables, surrender the

items. Do not resist. This should not happen in the first place as you are to be moving

keeper) and everyone will be well covered then. If someone is missing, inform your host and teachers as soon as possible. Do not panic.

E. ACCIDENT ON THE ROAD If someone is injured, immediately call for help from passers-by. Inform your teachers

immediately and give the location. If the injury is fairly serious, calm the victim until

help comes. You should not panic or become hysterical as it will compound the
