steven100 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 poor boy ..... I hope they locate him soon. Japan is considerablY safer than most other Asian countries so I expect he just went for a walk to look around and ended up lost. Difficult if he cannot speak English or Japanese.

toenail Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Where were the parents when their son opened the door of the hotel room they were staying in ?? Since the boy didn’t have a jacket on and had hotel slippers on he probably wasn’t going too far. Hopefully some sick pervert didn’t abduct him into his/her room.

shady86 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 A 14 year old teenager should be mature enough to ask for help if he is lost. Unless still being fed like a 4 year old child like the rest of the teens here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holy cow cm Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Seedy people everywhere and Japan is no new comer to kidnapping and having some of the oddest sexual habits. Good luck to the boy though and safe return. Probably does speak English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mother thanked everybody for helping to find her son. She however asked for privacy following his death, saying the family would not answer any queries or contacts. Tien went missing on Monday night, not longer after he and his family arrived in Tokyo for a holiday His parents stayed in one room and their three children, Tien among them, shared another room.

holy cow cm Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Unexpected accident? elevator shaft? stairway fall? tossed out of a room? Seems unlikely and they maybe want it not to taint his unadulterated life if misdeeds were the culprit. Too bad and feel for his parents hurt.

Tilacme Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Kids can and will panic being away in strange hotels especially, if they (and siblings) were in a different room to parents. I sense desperation in perhaps the needed to do something to protect his siblings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli42 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Something very odd here. I get why authorities are reluctant to jump to conclusions as to the cause of death. However, to say nothing at all about what happened after the boy got in the elevator is very odd. No mention if he even left the hotel or what location or circumstances he was found. It’s a terrible tragedy but something is just off about this (or the reporting). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoop1130 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Thai teen found dead in Tokyo was polite, well-mannered By Suwanee Bandisak The Nation Surat Thani Tien and his mother Tien Sukanonsawat, a teenager who was found dead after disappearing in Tokyo on Monday, was described as well-mannered and polite. He had gone missing soon after he and his family checked into a Tokyo hotel on Monday night. After his mother posted a request on social media to help find him, Thai communities in the Japanese capital and back home got working on the job. Then on Wednesday morning, his mother posted a message on Facebook saying Tien’s body had been found and that he had died in an unexpected accident. She did not reveal the cause for his death and asked for privacy. Tien’s family owns Diamond Plaza Hotel, a major hotel in the southern province of Surat Thani. Hotel staff told reporters that the hotel’s owner Suthee had two sons: Tien and Tan. “As the family was leaving the hotel to take a flight to Japan, Tien greeted all the staff and even bid the security guards goodbye with a ‘wai’,” a staff member said. Some family acquaintances told the reporter that the Sukanonsawat family was very close and always did things together.

wisperone Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Wow...that is very sad indeed. When I first read it, I thought sleep walking...as what 14 year old kid walks around a hotel in his pajamas. Something just does not add up here. Perhaps the kid had mental illness. Could he had been lured away on social media. Very strange they don't say how the kid died. Anyone have a yahoo.com Japan feed? I would think it would be in the Japan press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dek Somboon Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Now the Japanese authorities should find out why the boy disappeared and died. Then trade the results of their investigation in case the RTP manages to get their thumbs out and solve the 2007 Wat Saphan Hin, Sukhothai murder of Tomoko Kawashita - before the 20 year statutory expiry...
