The 29-year-old who bought a Kia Sportage LX during the promotion campaign was in disbelief when she won.
”It was unexpected. I am really excited and overjoyed. I am not sure what I will do with another new Kia Sportage. Maybe I will use it or maybe I will sell it. I am still thinking about it,” she said.
On how she chose the winning box, she said, “I was eyeing the third box from the start. I felt that I should pick that box. I was surprised to have won.”
The second prize of an iPhone 14 Pro Max 128GB went to Rabiatul Izzati binti Md Hamzan while third place winner Toh Tieng Sing received an iPad Pro M2 12.9” 128GB.
