Concept of Luck vs. work

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Yeah agreed, hard work and a cautious respectful attitude towards anyone will bring more luck to you than mere coincidence will.

Dude in the airport bumps into me from behind, doesn't give a shit, bad luck to him.

When we applied for job, a friend of mine fell exam many times even she was a good student and tried hard. Some people said corruption behind it, but I passed the exam without any money under the table. Believe in luck or not? There is no luck without your effort.
