"Although I was really hoping to win, I didn't believe it at first because the draw wasn't held on the usual first Saturday of the month. "I only believed it after confirming with BSN, and I'm truly thankful for this long-awaited blessing,' said Bahari, who had served in the teaching profession for 34 years. He said that for now, he had no plans on how to spend the prize money and would continue saving it in his SSP account to remain eligible for future draws. However, Bahari said he intended to use part of the winnings to take his siblings, who had yet to perform the haj or umrah, to fulfil the pilgrimage. - BERNAMA More Like This
