TOKYO (Reuters) - Over 33,000 people took their lives in Japan last year, topping 30,000 for the tenth consecutive year despite a government campaign to reduce what is one of the highest suicide rates in the world.
 
A report issued by the National Police Agency on Thursday showed that 33,093 people killed themselves in Japan in 2007 -- the second-largest number on record after 34,427 in 2003 -- mostly because of debt, family problems, depression and other health issues.
There was also a leap in the number of suicides involving toxic hydrogen sulphide gas made from household detergents, a previously obscure method that is spreading rapidly as Internet messages tell victims how to produce the poison at home.
 
Akita prefecture in northern Japan, which has had the highest rate of suicides in the country for the last 13 years based on a separate welfare ministry survey, has been running a suicide prevention program since 2000.
 
"People used to say 'why do we have to use tax money to deal with suicides, when this is an individual problem?"' Akira Sato, an official at Akita prefecture, said.
 
"But unless the entire community understands that this is an issue, it can't be solved."
 
Annual cases of suicide in Akita, which has a population of around one million, peaked in 2003 at around 520 and fell to about 420 in 2007.
 
Gotta love those japanese people :).
