Seven winners in Dubai share Dh1 million Mahzooz weekly jackpot


  • English
  • Arabic

Seven lucky winners in Dubai will share the Dh1 million Mahzooz jackpot. Each will take home Dh142,857 after their selection matched five of the six numbers drawn during the 15th weekly raffle.

The winners, of different nationalities, said they will use the money to take care of their families and build houses back home.

“These are tough times but I am blessed that I now have the money to build my family a house in Punjab,” said Dubai resident Satwinderpal, 27.

Dubai resident Noemi, 44, a Filipino, and Deependra, 38, from Nepal, also plan to build houses for their families with the prize money.

“I have always wanted to buy a house for my family back in the Philippines and now I will do that,” Noemi said.

“I’ve been planning to buy a property for my family that’s closer to Katmandu. I discussed this with my father, my mother and my wife and now it’s a reality,” Deependra said.

The draws take place every Saturday and are live-streamed on the Mahzooz website at 9pm. The entry price for each game is Dh35.

Those who match six numbers share a cash prize of at least Dh50m.

Winners who match five numbers can claim a share of Dh1m, which might increase depending on how many players there are.

Players can now play for future draws rather than just the draw for that week.

They can register on mahzooz.ae or its smartphone app.

Quick pearls of wisdom

Focus on gratitude: And do so deeply, he says. “Think of one to three things a day that you’re grateful for. It needs to be specific, too, don’t just say ‘air.’ Really think about it. If you’re grateful for, say, what your parents have done for you, that will motivate you to do more for the world.”

Know how to fight: Shetty married his wife, Radhi, three years ago (he met her in a meditation class before he went off and became a monk). He says they’ve had to learn to respect each other’s “fighting styles” – he’s a talk it-out-immediately person, while she needs space to think. “When you’re having an argument, remember, it’s not you against each other. It’s both of you against the problem. When you win, they lose. If you’re on a team you have to win together.” 

It’ll be summer in the city as car show tries to move with the times

If 2008 was the year that rocked Detroit, 2019 will be when Motor City gives its annual car extravaganza a revamp that aims to move with the times.

A major change is that this week's North American International Auto Show will be the last to be held in January, after which the event will switch to June.

The new date, organisers said, will allow exhibitors to move vehicles and activities outside the Cobo Center's halls and into other city venues, unencumbered by cold January weather, exemplified this week by snow and ice.

In a market in which trends can easily be outpaced beyond one event, the need to do so was probably exacerbated by the decision of Germany's big three carmakers – BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi – to skip the auto show this year.

The show has long allowed car enthusiasts to sit behind the wheel of the latest models at the start of the calendar year but a more fluid car market in an online world has made sales less seasonal.

Similarly, everyday technology seems to be catching up on those whose job it is to get behind microphones and try and tempt the visiting public into making a purchase.

Although sparkly announcers clasp iPads and outline the technical gadgetry hidden beneath bonnets, people's obsession with their own smartphones often appeared to offer a more tempting distraction.

“It's maddening,” said one such worker at Nissan's stand.

The absence of some pizzazz, as well as top marques, was also noted by patrons.

“It looks like there are a few less cars this year,” one annual attendee said of this year's exhibitors.

“I can't help but think it's easier to stay at home than to brave the snow and come here.”
