I saw it on BBC. I always find it suspicious when someone accused of stealing company secrets commits suicide. I mean throwing yourself off a 12 story building isn't the most popular suicide option, I'd suspect foul play.

All I can say is thank God I live in America. We have our issues here but we don't kill someone over losing a phone. We don't beat teenagers to death that play video games either.

Yeah but here the teens kill each other for the phone because the game they were playing. At least that is what the news says

True. I guess we're all equally screwed up. At least people aren't being murdered over Jordan's and Starter jackets on a regular basis any longer.

I almost moved to Viet Nam a few years back. This story just reaffirms why it's better to live in a country where you can lose something and not lose your life as a result. Well, depending on what you lose I guess.
