A lone lucky lotto player from Batangas, who was accompanied by his wife, claimed the P84,057,06.00 jackpot prize of the Super Lotto 6/49 at the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) main office in Mandaluyong City on July 1, 2021.
The winner bought the winning ticket using a lucky pick system.
The lucky ticket’s winning combination is 10-20-32-40-08-11 and was purchased at an outlet in Nasugbu, Batangas,
The lucky player told the PCSO that he has been playing for 20 years, and has a pet number but on that day he decided to play on a separate lucky pick.
Out of joy and disbelief, the new millionaire wept as he claimed his jackpot prize at the PCSO’s main office.
“Hanggang ngayon hindi kami makapaniwalang mag-asawa na kami ay nanalo”.
“Gagamitin namin ang aming napanalunan sa business at kailangan gamitin ng maayos para sa aming future.”
“Para sa PCSO, ipagpatuloy po ninyo ang inyong adhikain na makatulong sa mga tao at sa kagaya ko na umasa na darating yung araw na ako ay mananalo”. “Kami po noon ay natulungan na rin ng PCSO noong kami ay nangailangan ng medical assistance para sa aking kapatid na nabari l,maliit na halaga pero sa amin napakalaking tulong.” Maraming-maraming salamat sa PCSO,” he expressed.
PCSO Vice-Chairperson and General Manager Royina Marzan-Garma has urged the public to continue patronizing PCSO game products because revenue of the agency goes to charities benefitting Filipinos in dire need of assistance.
Under the Tax Reform Acceleration and inclusion (TRAIN) Law, a 20% tax will automatically be deducted to the jackpot prize and the said winnings should be claimed within one year from the date of draw otherwise it would be forfeited.
Winning numbers and other details of PCSO games, products and services can be viewed at the official PCSO website at www.pcso.gov.ph and the official FB page at https://www.facebook.com/pcsoofficialsocialmedia and PCSO GOV for YouTube.
Following security protocol, the PCSO withholds the identity of the winners for security and safety reasons.
