Help! My wife is killing herself

[MarrickG]

When his wife tried to hang herself in their Redhill flat, Mr Lim panicked.

The 63-year-old was at such a loss that he ended up calling the press.

He thought they would put him in touch with a counsellor, someone who would be able to talk some sense into his wife, a cleaner.

But his wife, 50, grew so agitated on seeing the media that she threatened to kill herself - again - that Tuesday afternoon.

The following night, another life-and-death dilemma occurred, this time at Bukit Batok industrial estate.

And security guards, faced with a hysterical woman threatening to leap from the 14-storey rooftop of a building, were equally panicky.

They did the only thing they could think of - they called the police.

Fortunately, the woman remained where she was until the police arrived, leading to a five-hour stand-off as officers tried to calm her.

Jump MRT track is Kamikaze. No U turn.
Those try to jump flat but keep talking no gut to jump. If really want to jump already jump.

Generally, compared to men, women are less determined and less violent when it comes to killing themselves.

I hate those threaten to jump. KNN want to jump just keep quite go to the highest floor and jump. That all why making so big fuss .

There is a crude saying in chinese 男人最大快事， 发财死老婆 (The best things that can happen to a man is striking it rich and having a dead wife after)
