    Had it been a Farang it would have course been Suicide; no investigation required !

  • It is called inflation.    But we dont want the Thais making money do we. It is not good for our superiority complex is it.   Samet might be a little pricey compared to other Thai

  • I heard that the police are following two possible lines of enquiry,   one of them is the unseasonable change in temperature, they think the death may have been caused to a sudden cold spell

They could not say whether he had tripped and fallen or was pushed.

Probably waiting for an offer.

If he was a farrang, the conclusion unambiguous.

In '99 the cost for a bungalow here was less than B1000. Today that is dinner for two

 

??? In 2015 I rented a moped for 250 bahts a day and found bungalows for 500 Bahts a night. Had lunch at local restaurant south of the island for 120 Bahts two people. Call that "inflated"?

If this was a farang it would be a clear case of suicide but because he's thai it could be a case of murder! ?  RIP

Had it been a farang the police would have classed it as another suicide 

Is this the Boy who was linked to the Koh Tao murders?

"suspected suicide" or "murder considered"

No prizes for guessing which nationality can be attributed to each

 

OK, I'll take the bait, which nationality is it...?

No.  

 

He is from Koh Tao which is in the vicinity of Koh Samui.  This guys family owns resorts on Koh Samet which is located just off Rayong. Two very different parts of Thailand. 

Shockingly the cry of "do you know who my daddy is?!?!?" Didnt prevent the fall.   Nice.

Two things.
ONE:
From the photo it only looks like there's five  storeys,  in which I'm including the top of the building as a storey,  so there's definitely not five floors  (which you can all see).
TWO:
Somehow they  "know"  he departed from the third floor.  I have no idea how they have confirmed this,  unless of course there's witnesses,  in which case this is:
a.  not coroborated,  therefore not a fact at all,  but a statement or hearsay pending cross examination in court;  and,

b.  would indicate that the witness---real or imagined---would have seen if he tripped and fell over the over-waist-height guard wall/rail,

therefore,  the whole story's totally riddled with strong deception indicators,  and of course the lack of any possibility of the only possible non-murder scenario is that he was wandering about on the guardrail or wall when he fell,  or,  as would be the case if he was foreign;  he committed suicide.

Total suspect as with all deaths from height in Thailand.

For the more keen researcher of the Thai jumping pandemic,  I would urge readers to look up the CIA's assassination manual from the 1960's where all agents tasked with killing people were told them to throw the body off as higher a height as possible,  to destroy totally or largely contaminate any evidence on the corpse of any prior foul play,  which was the actual cause of their death.   In this case,  as we can see,  the body hasn't shattered,  so this would indicate that suicide would be the most likely,  but we must consider,  if the building had a lift,  then it would be totally safe for a couple of killers to drag the body up to the roof to throw him off there,  as no one would use the stairs in this country should that've been the case.


 

17 floors is the suggested minimum.

The problem with thailand is as prices increase the quality does not proportionally....

 

thailand is great for low cost items but fails in understanding one needs to increase quality /service whe jacking up prices...

 

it aint inflation but figured out they can make a greater profit margin on high end products vs . Low  cost ones

 

Example - LH uses the same building materials for a 20MB  house that they do for 5MB home....profit margin goes way up but not quality....same with high end island resorts....

 

This makes me conclude that the buyers are idiots.  Bangkok at least is in a housing bubble I think. 

If it was a farang, they would never ever have said murder.

Thais so simple.

Him papa rich man. Him murder.

Clearly a suicide! All balcony jumps are.

3rd floor balcony?????    in '67  Army Jump School we had to jump from s 33ft tower into saw dust pit w/o anything attached...............for practice.   Who tries to commit suicide from a 3rd floor balcony, that is only a sure way to break a lot of bones and interior organs  -  unless he did a absolute header onto the concrete.

Oh, plaese don´t take it so serious. I was referring to the standard solution of the police. :cheesy:
