Headmaster Lai Kum Ming, who won a Perodua Myvi SE in the week’s Power of 9 contest, will have an extra special 25th year wedding anniversary celebration with his wife, whom he believes brought him luck in winning the prize.
The 53-year-old said his wife, Lim Bee Hong, 47, a lecturer, was the best thing that has ever happened to him and calls her his lucky charm for bringing a lot of happiness in his life.
“I believe that she brought me good luck in this contest as well, because she buys The Star newspaper for me everyday,” he said when met at the 1 Utama shopping mall here yesterday.
Lai won the car when he entered the contest which required participants to answer “true or false’’ questions on the Star media group and Perodua. The tie breaker is determined by the participant signing The Star in the most creative way.
Jubilation: Lai jumping up for joy upon receiving the mock key to a Perodua Myvi SE at the 1 Utama shopping mall Sunday. Cheering him on is Lim.
“Our silver jubilee anniversary this year is made even more joyous because of this prize,” he said, adding that the new car would be given to one of his two daughters when they start working.
“I’ve been reading The Star since the mid-70s. I think I would be lost if I didn’t have a copy to read,” he said.
The nine-week competition which started on July 13 will enter its final week today. For the last week, eight winners will receive RM3,999 each, with the grand prize winner walking away with a Perodua Myvi SE.
GSC cinema vouchers worth RM80 each will also be given away to 90 winners every week.
The Power of 9 contest is organised to celebrate The Star’s anniversary on Sept 9. Perodua is the official contest sponsor. Those who wish to participate can do so until Sept 18 by obtaining the forms from The Star and by logging on to www.thestar.com.my/powerof9/.
