The father, who was in his 30s, climbed the tower and emergency workers were called to the scene, according to the report.
Firefighters set up an inflatable cushion and tried to talk him down. After 16 hours, he relented and climbed down.
The mainland this year relaxed family planning rules to allow all couples to have a second child, in a bid to combat the greying of society and slowing population growth.
