Jackpot win fulfills longtime promise
KUALA LUMPUR: What began as an occasional ticket purchase turned into a deeply emotional moment for a Magnum 4D Jackpot winner, who now sees his lucky winning not only as a financial blessing, but the fulfillment of a long-held promise to the woman who stood by his side through everything.
The recent Magnum 4D Jackpot winner, who won over RM11mil, never imagined hitting such a life-changing prize.
He played occasionally, inspired by stories of small plays leading to big winnings. With no expectations, just a quiet hope, he placed his bet.
What made this ticket different was a whispered tip from a friend, who urged him to speak to a Feng Shui master.
The advice he received from the master was strange but unforgettable: 'Pay attention to numbers if you visit your cousin's house soon.' That curious and cryptic message ended up shaping the numbers that would soon change his life.
On the night of the draw, the family sat down for dinner and watched the live draw results together.
Disbelief filled the room when his numbers first appeared under the Special Prize - and then among the top three prizes.
The room erupted in joy, his wife, who had been skeptical of him playing, couldn't hold back her excitement.
But this was more than just a win -it was a moment years in the making. The winner had long carried a quiet regret - he had never taken his wife overseas, never even given her the chance to hold a passport of her own. Through life's challenges, she stood by him, never complaining. Now, with this win, he finally gets to rewrite that chapter. Not just with money, but also with a meaningful experience they'll share and remember forever.
Part of the winnings will go towards settling their loans, bringing them closer to financial peace. But for this winner, the most priceless part isn't the numbers in his bank account – it's knowing he can finally give his wife the kind of memories he always dreamt of sharing with her.
'Beyond the excitement of winning, what truly moves us are the stories we're privileged to be part of — stories of people holding onto hope, keeping promises and sharing love,' said a Magnum 4D spokesperson.
'We remain committed to creating these chances for joy, no matter how big or small. And no, you don't always need a Feng Shui master to give you hints. Just stay open to number inspirations around you. Miraculous wins do happen and next time, it might just be yours.'

Tear gas, flash-bangs and arrests as LA immigration detention centre protest turns violent
US immigration authorities extended their activity in the Los Angeles area on Saturday (local time) in the wake of protests at a federal detention facility and a police response that included tear gas, flash-bangs and the arrest of a union leader. Border Patrol personnel in riot gear and gas masks stood guard outside an industrial park in the city of Paramount, deploying tear gas as bystanders and protesters gathered on medians and across the street, some jeering at authorities while recording the events on smartphones. 'ICE out of Paramount. We see you for what you are,' a woman said through a megaphone. 'You are not welcome here.' One handheld sign said: 'No Human Being is Illegal.' The boulevard was closed to traffic as Border Patrol officers circulated through the area. ICE representatives did not respond immediately to email inquiries about weekend enforcement activities. The immigration arrests in Los Angeles came as President Donald Trump and his administration push to fulfil promises of mass deportations across the country. On Friday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrested more than 40 people while executing search warrants at multiple locations, including outside a clothing warehouse where a tense scene unfolded as a crowd tried to block agents from driving away.

All snow-hit highways open, but care urged
All snow-hit state highways have now reopened in the South Island but motorists should still plan ahead and check the roads before travel, the NZ Transport Agency advises. Check state highways here State Highway 8 between Twizel and Fairlie, and SH80 between Lake Pukaki and Aoraki/Mount Cook in the Mackenzie Country were closed at 6pm yesterday as a safety measure for motorists and crews working on the roads. More snow flurries had been forecast and this, combined with snow melt and freezing temperatures, made for extremely icy conditions, the New Zealand Transport Agency/Waka Kotahi said on Saturday. The Hermitage Hotel in Aoraki Mt Cook National Park looked like a winter wonderland, blanketed in snow. The closures were lifted 10am today, but motorists were still advised to take care when travelling. Roading crews had been busy gritting and treating areas of ice on the roads. MetService said snow flurries were possible for the Lewis Pass this afternoon and more snow was expected for Porters Pass (SH73) from 3am until about 10am on Monday. Up to 4cm may accumulate above 800 metres, with lesser amounts down to 500 metres. There was plenty of snow still on the ground in Naseby in the Maniototo area of Central Otago. One resident said about 15cm had fallen by Saturday night. Other South Island highways that had been closed by snow yesterday morning were now open, but motorists were encouraged to plan ahead and check the roads before travel, the spokesman said. "Snow and ice can make travel more hazardous, and motorists should be mindful of speed, travelling distances and visibility." Chains needed on Crown Range Road The Crown Range Road linking Queenstown and Wānaka is open following heavy snow overnight on Friday, but chains still need to be carried. MetService said snow showers were expected from 8pm today until 2am on Monday, and up to 1cm may accumulate about the summit. 🥶Winter is certainly here! It's a very cold and frosty start of the day, with Wanaka at -4℃ and Taumarunui at -3℃this morning. Here are the 7am temperatures. Please note that a temperature below 3℃means frost and a temperature below -2℃ means severe frost, so watch out for… — MetService (@MetService) June 7, 2025 A spokesman for the Queenstown Lakes District Council said there were sub-zero temperatures across the district this morning and crews had applied anti-icing agent CMA has been applied to certain areas including to parts of SH6 from Frankton to Kingston and Arrow Junction, and Shotover bridge. "The roads are mostly dry across the district, however this can change around sunrise. The temperature lowers a few more degrees and could present issues for shady spots and bridge decks in particular." In Southland, another fine but frosty day was forecast for the Milford Road (SH94) area and there was ice and grit around bridges, the Milford Road Alliance advised. "Please drive with care." - ODT Online
