Phase 1 Lucky Draw Grand Prize winner is a first time property owner
Mr Lee, a 35-year-old chef, who currently rents a flat in Cheung Sha Wan, is thrilled to now own his first apartment and is looking forward to moving in. Mr Lee shares: 'When I first got notified about being the winner of the Phase 1 Lucky Draw, I was so excited and happy as I had never thought that I would have the luck to win the Grand Prize! The pandemic situation has been volatile since the beginning of the year with many restaurants impacted. Hoping to support the economic recovery, I took the initiative to get myself vaccinated and received my second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine in April. A number of my friends and family members have already been vaccinated too. I truly believe vaccination is the most effective way to protect myself and my family, and this win is certainly a pleasant yet unexpected surprise. I shall continue to encourage my friends and family to get vaccinated, and to prepare ourselves for returning to normality and travel again.'
