JAKARTA - An Indonesian migrant worker in Taiwan is reported to have received a lottery from the purchase receipt of goods collected during the March-April 2022 period in the form of cash worth 2 million Taiwan dollars or around Rp. 990.2 million.

Reported by ANTARA, Friday, July 29, the 27-year-old female worker with the initials Y took money from the Chang Hwa Commercial Bank office near her place of work accompanied by staff from the money transfer company Indo Suara.

The woman, who has a six-year-old son who is being cared for by her husband in Indonesia, has been working in Taiwan for the past three years.

At first she worked caring for elderly women in Yilan County before moving to a factory in Taoyan last May.

"At first I didn't believe in getting this lottery. Today when I arrived at the bank, I just really believed it," Y was quoted as saying by Taiwan's official news agency CNA, adding it was his biggest lottery win.

The plan is that the money will be used to buy land in his hometown in Indonesia so that his family can grow crops.

Taiwan's Ministry of Finance announced the winners of the lottery since Monday (25/7).

However, Y could not take it at that time because his resident permit was in the process of applying for an extension at the immigration office.

Taiwan's Ministry of Finance has set a deadline for taking the lottery prize on September 5, 2022, according to CNA monitored by ANTARA from Beijing, China.

The local authority draws regular public spending receipts with a certain amount of cash as the prize.
