Dao said she also has plans to donate some money to charity organisations such as the Red Cross Society to support needy families.

This is the largest jackpot prize ever paid out to a Vietnamese winner. On October 17, Ms Dao authorized her father and relatives to go to Ho Chi Minh City to claim the prize money.

Vietlott, or Vietnam Computerized Lottery One Member Limited Liability Company, signed an exclusive 18-year contract in January with Malaysian conglomerate Berjaya to operate computerized lottery games in Vietnam.
