BANGKOK:-- A Japanese man has died after falling from a condo in the Huay Kwang district of Bangkok.

The unnamed man, who is believed to be 35 years old and between 170-175cm tall, was found outside the Lumpini Place Condo on Rama 9 Road late on Monday night, reports Daily News.

The man, who worked as a truck salesman, was found to have a number of injuries including a fractured skull, two broken arms and a broken ankle.

Police investigating the incident told reporters how they found a suicide note inside the man’s room, which suggested he may have argued with his Thai wife prior to him committing suicide.

Police also said there was no sign of forced entry in the room and that they would be speaking to the man's wife as part of their investigation.

Nothing is ever worth suicide. Learn to love adversity and always fight through.

Sorry to hear about this poor guy. Cannot imagine what it would be like to feel that bad you would take your own life.

(cue to Thai bashing gang that haunts the forum to attack all Thai women and to say the suicide not was penned in Thai, not Japanese.) thumbsup.gif

Here we go another Japanese committing suicide and jumping off.

How many numbers are enough to raise a warning sign for these Japanese...??? So many un natural deaths, shouldn't it be enough for them to be extremely careful. ???

Something to consider before final ruling by RTP. The wife's brothers uncles and maybe boyfriend would not have to make forced entry into the apartment. It takes a lot of money and a high position to get a proper investigation here.

ahha ! the thai wife again .......... !! property ? money ? her family ?

Japan man.

Or perhaps suicide as suggested by the presence of a suicide note?

He may have argued with his Thai wife before committing suicide ?

There are an ordinate amount of foreigners dyeing from what police claim are falls from condos.

More than a western city. Would it not be a good idea to set up a commission to find out why so many are

meeting their demise like this or do the Thais not want to find out that some woman like to push their

husbands out of balconies

Lumpini Place: same condo as the Thai woman shot with the gun under the pillow?

Or perhaps suicide as suggested by the presence of a suicide note?

The 29 year old Frenchman found hung on Koh Tao with his hands tied behind his back, had a suicide note next to him...

I do hope they do a bit of handwriting analysis to see if he wrote the note.

Was the note written in Thai, Japanese or English ? Let's see the note if it exists.

The suicide rate of foreigners in Thailand has to be the highest in the world. And I'm pretty far from the belief that are suicides.

Nothing is ever worth suicide. Learn to love adversity and always fight through.

Thank you Professor IamNoone...b****x prognosis...

Oh....that's my condo. I sure hope it wasn't me! cheesy.gif

...they somehow know the whole story....wow...

Geez! Have you ever read about suicide in Japan? There are books about it. The yearly number of suicides is quite high.

the man is bound to have injuries having fallen from his apartment in the condo it might be a good idea to check for other injuries that might have been caused prior to his fall having had an argument with his thai wife .

Nothing is ever worth suicide. Learn to love adversity and always fight through.

Well I wouldn't say nothing, as I am not in pain with Terminal Cancer, but certainly not over a woman. At age 35 I was almost on my second divorce.

Offensive troll posts have been removed.

does everyone in this board think there are no Asian members?

its almost like a they are part of a KKK forum

Man jumps to his death, leaves suicide note. To the police this is cut and dry.

Where is Khun Marple when we need her?

Nothing is ever worth suicide. Learn to love adversity and always fight through.

"Learn to love adversity and always fight through."

An invaluable bit of wisdom for anyone truly making a go of it in Thailand. And you know who you are.

I've yet to hear of anyone jumping out of their window here in the USA. Yet it happens with such frequency in Thailand. Nice to be back here in USA and not have to worry about disappearing one day...
