Photo via ThaiRath. A Thai medical student reportedly committed suicide by leaping from the 21st floor of his condominium, located within the premises of the Lerdsin Hospital in Bangkok. The deceased was identified as 24-year-old Jirasak Prakartpeasat, a sixth-year student at Rungsit University. No signs of struggle or suspicious items were found, and no suicide note was left. Speculation suggests the pressures of work and perceived authoritarianism within the hospital may have played a role. The Forensic Physician Association of Thailand and the Thai Frontline Physician Union expressed condolences and called for attention to the medical workers’ toxic work environment.
