One second you could almost hear a pin drop as the attendants lapsed into silence. And then seconds later, they would all burst into uncontrollable chatter and nervous laughter. The finalists had been whittled down to 10 from an initial 538 contestants, who had all entered the Standard Chartered Bank million maker draw launched on the 3rd of October. Customers were required to simply maintain a minimum average balance of P1,000.00 per quarter and earn a chance to win P1,000,000.00. The winner, who resides from Palapye, said she had invested more than P375, 000 in her account. This calls to why she grabbed the whole P1 million. She was overwhelmed, and she ran short of words. All she said was, “God never disappoints.”
