Phnom Penh: A man who worked as a Korean language teacher died of a suspected heart in a Stung Meanchey guest house at 3:10 am, on April 25, 2019.

He had gone to the guest house to meet his 30 year old lover.
According to a source, they had known each other over a year. The man also had a wife and children at home.
Sources said that the victim drove from Pursat, arriving in Phnom Penh, having dinner and meeting friends. At 9 o’clock he left his friends went to the guesthouse.
Later the girlfriend couldn’t wake the victim and called the owner to call a tuk tuk to take him to the hospital. He was brought outside, but was already dead.
After the incident, the owner contacted the local authorities who came and concluded cause of death was from a heart attack.
The body was then handed over to the family.
Do any foreigners who die in Cambodia NOT die of a heart attack? This man of 38 years, the Brit of 22 years, etc. What is it about Cambodia that causes ex-pats of all ages to lapse into heart failure? Time to ban public smoking and raise the price of Happy Hour draft beers to $2 — the extra dollar as tax to medical research and treatment fund administered by the UN.
