The upper tail cannot be seen, but this is probably a Besra.  The presence of a clearly dark stripe on the throat is a good feature.

HF Cheung,

The broad pale tail bars, obviously broader than the dark bars, and the dark brown upper chest streaks (rather than blackish) suggest this is Japanese Sparrowhawk.
