2013-03-01 Thailand-Jakonc village, Saiburi district, Pattani province-MEI. Micro economic initiative beneficiary Saikina Shecmah received 2 home mini-cake machines from ICRC. Her colleagues from the neighbourhood flank her. Most of the time it is for the women too dangerous to go out rubber tapping. They live in a “red zone” where a lot of security incidents take place. The road is known for bombings. Inside activities are safer in these turbulent times. Icrc agreed to support the vulnerable baking women. Nowadays they are selling cakes in front of schools and 14 shops in the community. Olivier Matthys
