Sosaria Turbocharged October 13, 2011 Share October 13, 2011 Goodness, luckily didn't hit any motorist passing under the bridge, else might also cause traffic accident and additional injury and death. The overhead bridge don't look very high, but nonetheless, a fall can be fatal. As for suicide rate, I read an article previously quoting last year's statistic of 350+, and that's almost one a day on average already. If the newspapers report every single one, well, every day got one article on average?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CKP 3rd Gear October 13, 2011 Share October 13, 2011 (edited) It is possible the suicide rate is still 10 suicides per 100K population per year, or 1 per day in a year with a 3.65M population. It could be restricted reporting that created an impression of low number of suicides taking place. With new media and camera phones, embargoes are no longer possible. At a higher population of 5.2M and the same suicide rate of 10 (per 100K pop) in 2006, we should get 2 suicides per day in 1 year.
