These Guidelines cover safety, security, health and environmental risks and give guidance on how these risks can be reduced to an acceptable level. However, users are reminded that this information is generic in nature and the risks encountered may vary with the particular situation or set of circumstances involved - any course of action should always be based on a sound and thorough assessment of safety risk.
If you are travelling to a hostile environment or undertaking activities in the 麻豆社 High Risk Guide e.g. covert filming, filming riots, etc., then you must contact the 麻豆社 High Risk team.
