These poor people should be able to take a pill when the time comes. When are we going to face reality and face the facts, there is a time to check out. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Briggsy Posted February 28, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2015 There is the small chance that Yupa didn't want any "beneficiary competition" or sensible advice given to Dulof regarding transfer of assets. Perhaps now that she is out of the way, Dulof needs to watch his back, particularly out on the balcony. Thailand is a very dangerous place with an excessively high number of violent deaths. I believe many deaths of foreigners with considerable assets are covered up here by the corrupt and complicit authorities. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finnomick Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 The Majestic again. I used to live within eye-sight of this condo complex and despite only being 5 storeys high it seems to get more than the average number of victims, an old friend of ours being one of them. Sad news.

Jungle Jim Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I am curious if they ever consider the fact that they might take another life that happens to be walking by. What is it with Pattaya and Phuket ? Do they have coverage for getting injured or killed by a falling body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micmichd Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Maybe a bit confusing, a husband with two wives. I would simply accept the Thai lady as a caretaker to the Geman woman. Maybe the old man wasn't fully aware that this might be considered as bigamy, but it's over now. RIP for the German woman. She might have felt she's in the way.

Tecumseh Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 severe mobility issues yet managed to shuffle over the balcony... She must have really wanted to check out She had a walking stick so obviously she could get around somewhat. Look, when someone is desperate for whatever reason they can muster up one last burst of strength and collapsing over a mini balcony wouldn't be too difficult. Poor lady, guess she had enough and another reason why people over 70 tired of living should be able to go somewhere to check out humanely.
