I know close to nothing on Asian birds but I CAN tell you that this bird has just left the nest. Because of that and incomplete plumage at this young age, it will be hard to ID unless parents were/are found. I almost think it's a swallow of some sort. I believe it's a very young bird by the yellow gape which young birds always have.
 
There's something of the barbet about it, big strong feet, legs and bill. Certainly still dependent on it's parents at this stage - who should be close by - so hopefully it's been returned to the outdoors somewhere out of the reach of cats.

On reflection I think the feet are wrong for a barbet.
