Wong, a 17-year old student, leaped to his death yesterday. Ten days ago he was punished for “disrupting” a school function, and it is believed the consequent bullying from his class mates resulted in his suicide in front of a crowd of approx. 600 students and teachers. According to a police source, Wong, who suffered from psychosis, left a note saying he would temporarily leave the world to prepare for his return to “hound” those who had wronged him. As a wolfman.

Wong is certainly not the first student to commit suicide this year in HK: he is number eight. Chinese University mood disorders center director Lee Sing said the school should have referred Wong to a school social worker or psychiatrist, instead of resorting to punitive measures. In addition, “students who have boycotted the boy may feel guilty and be emotionally disturbed by the death,” he was quoted saying. Sad. For a peek into the troubled mind of this boy, have a look at this poorly translated blog posting that was uploaded several days before his suicide. RIP.
