Many of us would have shopped for a thing or two during the recent 11.11 sales. Many online retailers also dangled carrots and prizes to entice consumers. The Lazada giveaway was enticing, with the grand prize being a condo unit!
The lucky winner of the $1 million one-bedroom condominium unit at Normanton Park is retired hawker, Mr Chow Meng Cheng.
Mr Chow, 70, collected the winning “golden key” after spending just S$3.41 on aloe vera gel and a digital voucher for nasi lemak, and playing an in-app game on Lazada.
Prior to retirement, Mr Chow was a hawker for over 30 years, selling fish noodle soup to support his family of five. He initially did not believe that he had truly won something and was convinced only after verifying everything with Lazada’s customer service team.
We feel so happy to hear this news, and it seems to us that Mr Chow can enjoy his retirement in this condo unit, with a lovely space to call his own. Congratulations Mr Chow!
