Phuket Expat Couple Argue, Man Falls to Death

Sunday, February 23, 2014
PHUKET: Police are investigating the death of a 27-year-old Ukranian man who plunged to his death early today on Phuket after an argument with his girlfriend. The couple had been living in a fourth-floor apartment at The Phanason Green Place in Phuket City's Samkong district for a year. About 1.10am neighbors heard the couple argue and the man's body, with a broken neck, was found soon after.

NOTE to all expats and tourists, when arguing with somebody here, do not go near the windows or onto the balcony. You will find yourself falling out of or falling off them. Sick place this, must be suicide?

As the couple were both expats, your plea seems pure bigotry, Robbie.

So, Ed: are you saying that, if it would have been a foreigner with a local, it could have been suicide? Now, isn't this bigotry as well?

I am saying what I wrote, Charles. The rest is your imagination.

there area lot of balcony deaths here seem highly over represented as a cause of death one can only speculate most get concluded as a death by misadventure, suicide or a attack in rage being manslaughter

Low balconies, sickmelb, are easier to fall over. Most are built for Asians, not taller Westerners.
