MANILA, Philippines — An unnamed bettor will be claiming P83.75-million Mega Lotto 6/25 jackpot, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office said Saturday.
The lone winner placed the lucky combination of 33-27-18-42-03-23 in Santa Rosa City in Laguna. The ticket was drawn Friday night.
The sizeable winning, however, is still subject to a 20% tax under Republic Act 10963 or TRAIN law.
Two other bettors from Pangasinan and Cavite earlier this month went home with P5.9 million each after 6/42 lotto draws.
The government's sweepstakes arm raises funds for health programs, medical assistance and services.
