Thread: Chinese Tour Agent Falls to His Death in Pattaya

A Chinese tour agent died late Monday night after falling from the rooftop of a hotel in Pattaya, Thailand, and police discovered evidence that his third-floor room had been broken into.


The man fell from the Mantra Pura Hotel on North Pattaya Road in tambon Na Klua, Bang Lamung district. At 11.46 p.m., his death was reported to Pattaya police.


The body of Chen Pu Lin, 33, was discovered in a pool of blood on a walkway beside the building by police and rescuers dispatched to the scene. He was only wearing his underwear.

A pool of blood was also discovered on the hotel’s rooftop. There were traces of a forced entry through the door in room 355, where the man stayed, but the room had not been ransacked. The room was sealed off for further investigation.


According to tour guides, the man was part of a group of four from a Chinese tour agency. They arrived in Pattaya on January 13 to conduct a tourist spot survey.


On Monday night, his three colleagues went out for a night tour, Chen told them he was sick and would stay in his room. According to the guides, the man had no quarrels or problems with anyone prior to his fatal plunge.

While awaiting the results of an autopsy to determine the cause of the tourist’s death, forensic police were scheduled to examine the room and view security camera footage from the hotel.

I somehow doubt this will be a thorough, far reaching and diligent murder investigation.

Pool of blood on the roof too, eh? Would love to know the story behind this whole thing.

Chinese bloke loses his room key.
Tries breaking and entering, makes a mess of his room door.
Thinks he is Jackie Chan, and tries to access his room from the roof via his balcony.
Realises too late, he is not Jackie Chan.

He slipped over and cut his arm or broke his nose while climbing onto and across the roof.

Sure, Chinky tourists from some shithole commie urban dystopia can act beyond normal human reason but these guys were not in that demographic and the hotel is not a backstreet flophouse for degenerate scum too fucked up to know what day of the week it might be.
And how many of us would know how to access the fucking hotel roof.
“ Oh dear, I’ve mislaid my electronic room key, I know I’ll just bumble along the corridors to find my way to the emergency access to the fucking roof so that I can lower myself down the front elevation, swing onto the front balcony over the rail and then force open the patio door from the outside rather that call the fucking night manager.”

Of course, our resident frazzled loons of TD in their incipient dementia would think such a mad enterprise to be credible.

You have the reputation similar to the back end of a pantomime horse, but absolutely no sense of humour. How is that?
