Pattaya, Chon Buri:- A Chinese tourist was severely injured after he jumped off from a songtaew bus on a Pattaya road early Monday, police said.

His friends told police that Wei Lei, 25, was apparently drunk and he made the jump after he had a quarrel with his girlfriend.

Pol Lt Col Pasawat Siripornnopphakhun, an interrogator on duty of Pattaya police station, was alerted at 1:10 am that a Chinese tourist fell from a songtaew, a truck modified as bus with two rows of seats, on the Third Pattaya Road in Central Pattaya in Moo 9 village in Tambon Nongplue of Bang Lamung district.

Pasawat rushed to the scene with rescuers from the Sawang Boriboon Pattaya Foundation and found Wei lying unconsciously on the road with a pool of blood from his head. The rescuers performed a first aid and rushed him to the Pattaya Memorial Hospital.

His friends told police that they had a party at a restaurant. After drinking for a while, Wei had a big quarrel with his girlfriend so the group decided to pay the bill and returned to their hotel in South Pattaya.

The Chinese tourists took a songtaew to go to South Pattaya. The friends told police that Wei, who was drunk, tried to jump off the songtaew but the friends stopped him in the first attempt.

While the friends were unaware, Wei jumped again – successfully this time.

Pasawat said the hospital informed police that Wei suffered severe head injury and his was in a critical condition. He was put in intensive care unit under close watch of doctors.

Idiot. 'nuff said.

Probably the same type of guy who sooner or later will jump from the roof of the factory he slaves at. Some factories have built nets and fences to stop the jumpers from killing themselves. Yes, it is that big of a problem.

They can't afford two bowls of rice let alone a foreign holiday.
