KUALA LUMPUR, 8 January 2020 – The new year started on a high for four Shell loyalists as they were announced grand prize winners of the ‘Nak Ekstra RM20,000?’, a weekly campaign aimed at turning Malaysians’ everyday journeys into rewarding experiences. The campaign is in its sixth week and will continue to reward Malaysians for five more weeks until 9 February 2020.
This campaign rewards one grand prize winner with RM20,000 and 20 consolation prize winners with RM1,000 weekly. A total of 84 winners have been rewarded and there are 126 grand prize and consolation prize winners to be announced until the end of the campaign period.
Shell Malaysia hosted a special celebration for the grand prize winners, namely Mohd Raffi Ismail from Bangi, Muhd Shukri Muhd Deris from Pahang and Azniza Bakar from Negeri Sembilan who attended the event to share their stories on their journey forward with RM20,000.
For week three’s grand prize winner, Muhd Shukri Muhd Deris, the win could not have come at a better time. “My 6-year-old daughter is in pre-school. While I am excited to see her start her schooling years, I was worried about the costs; from her books to school uniform and even school fees. Imagine my relief when I was told I won the RM20,000 grand prize from Shell Malaysia. This unexpected extra cash is a blessing for my wife and I, as it will contribute to our savings for our children’s education. Thank you, Shell, and I hope you will continue to reward Malaysian families in 2020!”
Shairan Huzani Husain, the Managing Director of Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd and Shell Timur Sdn Bhd expressed, “This is not a Shell story, this is a Malaysian story of lived experiences. We understand that many are faced with life’s hurdles and challenges and my goal is for us to help as many Malaysians as we can and we are doing this through the ‘Nak Ekstra RM20,000?’ campaign by giving Malaysians a platform to go further and do more”.
Gunaraj Murugasan, who is week two’s grand prize winner said, “For me, nothing is more important than my family’s wellbeing and that of fellow Penangites. I am an active member of the rotary club and we are always looking for ways to help communities in need. Now, Shell Malaysia will be part of our efforts to improve the lives of others as I plan to share the RM20,000 with those who truly need it”.
Azniza Abu Bakar, week four’s grand prize winner can finally fulfil her dream of owning a house. “I could not believe I have won! The extra RM20,000 is more than enough for me to buy a house and still have some left for my savings. I am relieved as my prayers have been answered, and I thank Shell for this”.
The event was also attended by consolation prize winners who celebrated their winnings that has helped them get one step closer towards their goals for the year ahead.
