Canadian Man, 86, Dies After Fall From Pattaya Condo
Higher railings would protect people from falling, but not from committing suicide. I think that most falls from high rise buildings are suicides. If you've had enough of life, there should be a humane solution available to get help to end your life peacefully.

Phuket Accident: Foreign Riders Abandon Injured Friend
Find and charge the three foreign riders who fled the scene, instead of helping the victim and their injured friend. Based on the skin color of the guy laying on the road, my guess is that they most likely are from middle east or India. Just yesterday I found out, that we now need to show a valid drivers license, before we can buy a motorbike in Thailand, so why not enforce the same rule for rental shops? It would be easy money for the bib to apply penalties to all the renters, who doesn't follow the rules!
