The question remains
Can you defend yourself adequately
So we have an 82yo jogger who is attacked at 10pm in a Pattaya park.
We have no information on if he did fight back, perhaps he did
But the question is ,are you confident enough to be able to defend yourself if some drunk grabbed you ?
If someone walks past you takes a swing for no reason
Now doesn't matter your size or even your age
I saw old boxers fight back
Now it doesn't take size to defend yourself
I once done a Israeli martial art called Krav Maga,the smallest people there seemed to be the best defenders
And I don't care if it's the Philippines,USA or Australia,are you confident enough to be able to fight back ?
Because ain't no one going to help you.
Bystanders won't intervene ,they won't until others do
You could be on the street ,in a train , anywhere even in the back of a baht bus .
I was in the Philippines last year , I remember a fit looking elderly man.
He said he was a black belt in the Filipino martial arts of KALI
This is knife 🗡️ fighting and he was a Master
Now I have no idea if Philippines allows knife and please don't ever ever quote me on it !!!
