Thaivisa News Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Pattaya, Chon Buri:- Pattaya police rescued a Chinese tourist who stood in the middle of the Pattaya-bound motorway Early Monday in an apparent suicide bid. The tourist was identified with his passport as Wang Wei, 25. He refused to talk to police why he was standing in the middle of the road. Pol LC Tornnikarn Wajjana of Nong Plua police station in Chon Buri’s Bang Lamung district spotted the tourist standing with apparent absent mind on the Pattaya-bound No-7 motorway in Tamobon Nongplua. The policeman was guarding the road for a VIP motorcade at about 0:10 am. Tornnikarn said he rushed to evacuate the man from the road. The policeman said the Chinese tourist would not utter a single word but his face clearly showed that he was under tension. The policeman checked the Chinese tourist’ bag and found his passport which showed that he entered the kingdom on March 1. His visa will expire on March 15. There were also 2,300 Chinese yuan and Bt1,200 in banknotes in the bag but all the notes were torn in half. After Torrnikarn and other policemen completed the mission of guarding the road for the VIP motorcade, they took Wang to the Nongplua police station and summoned a Chinese interpreter to help police interrogate the tourist. Police tried about two hours to find out what Wang’s problems were and what police could do to help him but the man only shook his head. He appeared sad and only said he no longer wanted to live. Nongplua police chief Pol Col Pramote Ngampradit said the man would be handed over to the Pattaya tourist police to take care pending further help from the Chinese embassy.

PatOngo Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 He probably just read the Chinese tourist etiquette brochure issued by the tourist authority. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Costas2008 Posted March 9, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Nobody knows and may be will never know what this man is suffering from. It's very easy to start taking the mickey out of him but that's not right. As outsiders we can say anything but we are just outsiders. There are many situations that may have made him being suicidal. May be the man has psychiatric problems. Who knows? Who are we to judge him? I just feel sorry for him and wish he sorts out his problems or seek psychiatric help.
