“Being a loyal customer, I won’t miss buying numbers especially on a draw day,” he said. “I was on a business trip to Kedah on Oct 16 and luckily I still managed to find a Sports Toto outlet there to bet on my favourite numbers, 5789 and 4996, which are my identity card and car registration numbers.”

The winner said he was shocked to learn that he won over RM5 million due to the cascading effect because he was not aware that the cascading of Toto 4D Jackpot 1 would take place on that particular draw day.

“It is a bonus for me and my family,” he said, adding that he would use the winnings to pay off his debts and buy a house.
