Platystomatidae or Ulidiidae (thus superfamily Tephritoidea). Definitely not Sepsidae.

Looking at the shape of the head I'd say Ulidiidae.

May be Kahis is right and it is also Platystomatidae? Look like widespread in Oriental region fly Rivellia basilaris (Wiedemann).
I've even one picture in internet: http://homepage1.nifty.com/tago-ke2/moyou-hae/kobetu/muneakamadara-b.htm

Certainly it looks quite similar.

Two or three species of Rivellia on my web page, including 4 images of R. basillaris

Somehow the robots of all search engines fail to find my images in most cases... Especially so if the image name is not something like Rivellia basillaris.jpg.
