Kuala Lumpur, 4 June - In a heart-stopping twist of fate, a self-employed man has turned a forgotten RM50 bank note into a jaw-dropping RM2,151,664.00 3+3D Bonus win — all thanks to a prayer, a promise, and a little divine intervention.
One month ago, the man had casually walked into a Da Ma Cai outlet and purchased a set of 1+3D numbers. Lady Luck smiled on him — he won RM60. Like most would, he exchanged the winnings at the counter and tucked the cash away, unknowingly pocketing the ticket to his destiny: a single RM50 note that he left untouched in his wallet for weeks.
Fast forward to the following month, the man found himself in a quiet moment of reflection. Praying to his ancestors, he made a heartfelt vow:
“If I ever win big, I’ll donate all of it to my primary school.”
It was then — almost as if guided by a higher power — he remembered the RM50 bank note. Taking it out, he noticed the serial number. “It just felt... right,” he said. The serial·number, 041, sparked something within him.
On impulse or perhaps instinct, he placed a Box bet using those three number combinations. For the bonus zodiac? He chose Tiger — a tribute to the zodiac shared by the people who had shaped his journey.
When he received the notification through Da Ma Cai mobile app, dmcGO that he had won the 3rd Prize of the 3+3D Bonus game, he was in disbelief. “I actually slapped myself — hard — to make sure I wasn’t dreaming,” he laughed.
But what he did next was even more astounding.
In a world where windfalls are often followed by luxury cars and overseas holidays, this man stayed true to his word. Inspired by the legacy of his late grandfather and great-grandfather — both educators and generous donors to schools — he’s now donating his entire winnings to his beloved primary school.
“I just want to give back, like they did,” he said humbly.
From a forgotten bank note to a fortune, this is more than a lucky break — it's a story of fate, family, and fulfilling promises. A reminder that sometimes, miracles begin with a simple prayer... and a RM50 note.
