Poun-Zan,
Position 2
All political prisoners are taught how to assume the poun-zan
positions when they first enter the prisons in a seperate room
of each prison. There are three regular poun-zan positions,
and one that is used for punishment.
The position
illustrated here is an emergency position if the authorities
pass through unannounced.
