Ms Korrawan Wangsathaporn, a Thai business woman
on her first trip to Singapore, is the August finalist of the ‘Be
a Changi Millionaire’ Draw, giving her a one-in-seven chance of
winning the grand prize of a million dollars cash.
When the call was made to Ms Wangsathaporn
informing her about her win, she was watching television and
thought it was her daughter calling. As she could not understand
English well, Ms Wangsathaporn passed the phone to her son, who
happened to be sitting beside her. When she realised that she is
one of the seven finalists for the ‘Be a Changi Millionaire’ Draw,
she was very ecstatic and exclaimed, “I am very excited about this
and I cannot wait to go to Singapore again!”
In January next year, Ms Wangsathaporn will join
Singaporeans Ms Toh Min Keow and Mr Teo Teck Seng, Australia-based
Filipina Ms Lira Wilson, and three other finalists at the Grand
Draw to vie for the grand prize of a million dollars.
As finalists for the Millionaire draw, they will
each win Sin$5,000 in cash plus return airfare to Singapore with a
three day/two night stay in a luxurious hotel.
Ms Wangsathaporn said that if she wins she will
donate part of the money to charity and use the rest for her
children’s education.
In addition to the monthly winner, four other
lucky shoppers were also picked as the weekly winners, winning for
themselves Sin$1,000 each. Out of the four winners, there are
three Singaporeans and one Indonesian. Winning purchases included
a Sin$110 Pasta De Waraku meal at Terminal 2 and an Apple MacBook
Air worth about Sin$2,000 from the iStudio store at Terminal 3
Departure Transit Lounge.
