UAE: Nepali staff wins Dh500,000 in Idealz instant cash, plans to secure children’s future – News

The Abu Dhabi expat has been trying to draw the lottery for the past 15 years and only recently won

In the past Eid al-Fitr, Idealz, the global money transfer operator under the Emirates Post Group, announced the win of AED 500,000 in cash in a cooperative lucky draw organized by Idealz.

Shambhu Kumar Mahto, a Nepalese expatriate and Abu Dhabi clerk, was the lucky winner. His name was drawn at random by an official of the Dubai Festivals and Retail Agency in a live draw held at Dubai Outlet Mall and televised on Sama Dubai TV.

For the past 15 years, Mahto has been trying his luck with lottery draws, but has never won a prize until now. His luck finally changed when he saw his winning ticket being drawn while watching the lucky draw live on the Idealz APP. Subsequent phone calls confirmed the news. Lady Luck finally smiled on them, and he and his family were ecstatic.

Accompanied by his wife and daughter, Mahto visited Idealz HQ in Box Park, Al Wasl Road to collect the prize.

“I am very grateful to Idealz and the Instant Cash team for launching this campaign. As for the path ahead, I intend to continue working as I have done for the past six years, and instead of spending money now, I intend to invest this money in my children’s future, maybe later , start-ups, I can pass on them,” he said.

Of these, this particular Dh500,000 cash campaign was a real crowd pleaser, given the variety of participation methods available to the public. Anyone who uses Instant Cash to send money anywhere in the world can participate in the event for free, except for Idealz customers who purchase Rosso Sets for Dh20.
