My adult daughter (24) is about to begin a one year+ stint as a Christian Missionary in Southern China. She has lived in Chinese provinces before, this is her first long assignment.
I am sending some basics to help her and her team leave in the event things were to get bad quick and she cant take a flight home. I dont expect it, just want to be able to provide options if they need to leave country on a land route south or southwest.
I would like your thoughts on other benign items she could take. my skills are limited to basic survival classes and living in field, never been through SERE or know anyone that has SF experience.
Obviously it is totalitarian country so she is limited on what she can have She and her small team are in excellent physical shape, they jog several miles a day. She has a good head in a crisis, can develop solutions and has the fundamentals of terrestrial navigation. She can read,write,speak Mandarin and is fluent in other languages. She has first aid certification and promised me she would complete a basic self defense class prior to leaving, she selected a Krav Maga class that I know nothing about.
Our plan would be to reach the border with India or Vietnam as primary route, Laos as a secondary, Myanmar as last choice. I wont share specifics on the internet but we do have rally points selected.
Prep items she is taking
1. Compass and general area map
2. Energy bars vacuum sealed
3. Water Purification straw.
4. She will get a cigarette lighter there
5. 14K Gold necklace with some 1/10 oz gold coins as charms to procure food, transportation, etc.
thanks for advice in advance from a dad who loves his daughter.
