Foreigner commits suicide in Sm Bacolod

To commit suicide when cheated by a woman.........no way..............there are many other ways for a revenge, though suicide is painless they say!!??

 

Some people can not take the hurt and the hopelessness that follows when you lose the one you love and you mistakenly thought the love was mutual. Alternatively, in the Philippines there are many to replace the one you lost. Reality, it is really so much a crap shoot to find the "right" one. This sad story is a lessons learned for guys coming over here meeting a chick on the internet and falling into the burning ring of fire. Proceed with caution, you are walking point in a dangerous territory.

 

True, Pat, but let us also remember that it is a "target rich envrionment"! Instead of shouting " Geronimo" and jumping, he should have shouted " NEXT" and begun the search for his next " ex-gf" !

 

German National Jumps to His Death At Bacolod Mall, Negros Occidental

German National Jumps to His Death At Bacolod Mall, Negros Occidental – Philippines Lifestyle - Philippines Lifestyle
BACOLOD CITY, Philippines – 40-year-old Richard Alexander Harbich, a German national, jumped to his death from the 3rd floor of SM City Bacolod Mall around 3 p.m. Thursday.

Oddly the strange news does not end there, it appears Harbich had attempted to kill himself two days earlier by the same method.

Harbich did not die at the scene of the attempted suicide, he died later while being treated at a local hospital in Bacolod City.

An investigation into the matter shows that Harbich traveled to Bacolod City last year to visit his girlfriend – but a concerned citizen found him sleeping at the plaza in late February and brought him to local authorities.

Harbich supposedly told authorities that he was penniless after his girlfriend took his money and valuables and he was forced out of the pension house where he was staying.

The investigation also noted that Harbich was in the process of fixing his papers to return home to Germany – but this is where we get the other side of the story.

Others that knew Harbich said he suffered from psychological, and other related mental issues.

Others involved with the care of Harbich when he exited the pension house, say he was prone to violent outbursts, lying, and making up stories that involved loss of money and more. Some are currently saying that he swindled people online as well.

Many who knew him and haven’t seen him in a long time thought Harbich had made it back to Germany, but now with his suicide, locals now know that his condition may have gotten to the best of him in the Philippines.

 

Makes me think the Philippines should run checks before allowing entrance into the country. Checks against a history of criminal and medical records would be a good start. There should be an international system for sharing this information on people seeking a visa or entrance.

Not that this should infringe on our freedoms to travel, but crossing international borders isn't necessarily a human right. You could argue that we have the right, but you could also argue that a nation has the right to defend its borders.

This guy wasn't crazy because he lost his girlfriend. He was just crazy. Everyone has their ups and downs. When those lowest downs hit suicide zone, then there is a problem the gray matter which requires possibly lifelong attention.

 

Good thing they don’t do mental checks on those of us already in the country. Mornings at McDonalds might be mighty quiet.

 

I'm sure they considered this, before deciding: No checks, cash only, and lots of it.

 

John not often you speak but when you do its well thought out
