American HOWARD ZILBERZWEIG From New York Found Dead in Phnom Penh Hotel Room

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Phnom Penh: The cleaning staff at the You Eng Hotel in Prey Tea Village, Sangkat Chom Chao 3, Khan Por Sen Chey, Phnom Penh, found a United States national, Howard Zilberzweig, dead in his room at 1pm on 1 June 2018. The deceased has been identified as 45 year old Howard Zilberzweig, staying in room 218 of the hotel.

When the guest didn't answer the door, the staff entered the room and found the man lying on the bed. They saw that he had passed away and the police were called.
There hasn't been a report on the cause of death yet, but the body was taken to the Khmer-Soviet Hospital. RIP.

That's a shame. He didn't make it very far. Rip. Howard Zilberzweig seems like a ghost, except for a bankruptcy.

I stayed at this hotel a couple of times due to the proximity to the airport. Not a 5 star hotel but not guaranteed to kill you either. RIP. Shitty place to pass on.
