Filipino wins $1M in Qatar raffle

A Filipino hotel employee won the $1 million jackpot in a raffle draw offered by Qatar Duty Free (QDF), a subsidiary of Qatar Airways, a Gulf Times report said Friday.

Otessa Carbonnel Schiapparelli, who works with the Moana Hotel in Palawan, purchased the ticket worth 950 Qatar riyals (P12,881) while transiting Doha en route to Manila on October 17, the report said.

The prize winning ticket was drawn at a function held at the Qatar Duty Free at the Doha International Airport Thursday.

Otessa is the first Filipino to win a Qatar Duty Free raffle draw. It was the first time that QDF gave a $1 million jackpot after offering only one million Qatar riyals (P13.5 million) as the top prize since the contest started three years ago.

The Qatar Airways subsidiary said it would conduct a draw whenever 5,000 tickets are sold.

Passengers flying to and from Doha International Airport will be able to purchase raffle tickets that are available at the departure, arrival, as well as the VIP area of the airport.

me tax din yan pagka...

una pag inuwi mo ang ganyan kalaking pera sisitahin ka sa airport natin sa manila so pag nasita me tax ka... Lalo na kung announced sa buong pinas ang mukha mo hehee. Sa Qatar me picture taking pa yan eh at nakapaskel sa Airport ang picture na pinalaki

pag pinadala mo naman bank to bank na dollar ang amount me tax din yan papatawan ka ng tax ng bankong tatanggap batas ata ito pagka more than 300 dollar ang pinadala mo.

pagka peso naman ang pinadala mo eh di ko alam ...... kung me tax

pero pag ako nanalo deposit ko muna rito sa bank ng Qatar then paunti unti ang uwi pagka me bibilhin. Me investment program din ang mga bank dito eh malalaki rin ang yield. nangarap pa

ok na money making scheme to ah.

sell tickets worth P12,881 each and give out a prize with every 5,000 sold...

P12,881 x 5,000 = P64,405,000. less the 49,000,000 jackpot, Quatar Airways makes P15.4 million after every drawing with very little promo and advertising costs. nice :hihihi:
