He fell because he wasnt wearing a safety harness not
"by accident"

Yep, there is no sign of 'Workplace Health and Safety' here.  Each site has to govern their own safety.

Thais do not know the meaning of "work safety"....Let alone care about it...

Yes, walking on 1cm of plasterboard, supported on 2mm of cheap aluminium ceiling strips will do that to you. 

Bad luck for the guy, but easily avoidable.
