Phuket grease monkey scoops 30 million lottery

Phuket’s newest millionaire is none other than a humble chief mechanic at Anuphas Ford, who struck gold in the government lottery’s latest draw.

Jirasak ‘Ton’ Saewun, who works at Anuphas Ford in Phuket, scooped a staggering 30 million baht after hitting the jackpot with five first-prize tickets. The winning numbers, announced by the Government Lottery Office, were 199606. Other lucky numbers included 173, 220, 094, 388, and the 2-digit number 94.

Upon realising his extraordinary luck, Jirasak celebrated wildly at home before making a beeline to Phuket City Police Station to report his life-changing windfall. Intriguingly, the winning number 606 matched a licence plate he’d been betting on for ages.

“I couldn’t believe it when I saw the numbers. It felt like a dream come true.”

The ecstatic mechanic has now jetted off to Bangkok to officially claim his prize money, reported Phuket News.
