I'm not all that big into scorpions, but I believe that is the Asian Forest Scorpion.

Adult female of a Heterometrus sp. That is all I can say based on one pic.

May I ask how you know its a female :)
Because most males of the species of this genus have a more pronounced basal inner tooth in the chela. It looks like that is missing in the specimen in the picture.
