The GSB Society page congratulated Danai, the lucky winner, on this extraordinary prize, stating that the prize distribution was genuine and congratulating him on winning the substantial amount.

Danai expressed his disbelief and excitement over his remarkable win. Initially, he found it hard to believe that he had won such a large amount. To confirm, he asked his younger brother to verify the win at the branch, and to his amazement, it was true. The excitement of winning has not faded for Danai, who is still processing the reality of his newfound fortune.

The win, facilitated through the special one-year digital bond, allows prize recipients to enjoy their full winnings without tax liabilities, making it an even more enticing opportunity for participants, reported KhaoSod.
