We don't know if they still fooling people like what they did in the previous administration. New President we have right now and this is the biggest prize we ever heard since the lotto begun. It's easy for them to manipulate the drawing of numbers. They declare the winning number but no one on the list have that combination. Hope that number own by one who bought a ticket not a fake one.

Usually there are stories that say that someone has won. Of course realistically it could be the government, because the government can pose as anything and anyone, but I think that's a bit excessive. Also, the people don't actually win that much, most of it is taxed and the rest is paid in installments. So it's not as great as it seems, but still obviously an amazing opportunity...

Yes, I also heard that someone won the grand lotto. Unluckily, it was not me who won. I was so excited yesterday and have been praying for it because it was my first time to bet. Well, we never know who won because it is confidential for security purposes. Have faith that it was not the government who manipulated it like the other rumors before.

What? People still buy lotto tickets? You have more chances to get hit by an intergalactic bus.

hey! hahaha i don't buy tickets too maybe cause i don't know how to or because i don't believe in it hehehe but there are a lot of people who put a lot of faith in this so i guess we'll just have to let them buy as many as they want and if they win we'll just have to congratulate them

hi chipesterkhan is your government that corrupt? I hope not, and hope someone who reallyneeded money was the winner. my that is so huge its hard to imagine winning it and i hope that the winner is a real p erson who will not fritter all that moneu away but use it wisely and give some to charity too.Would not the government get in trouble trying to get that money?well I hope for the sake of your country that a real person got that money and not a corrupt official

We are thinking the same way chipesterkhan. I am also doubtful if really someone wins that amount. You know what our governent is,plus if ever they give us proofs it might be false proofs. It's really hard to believe that someone has won the winning number combination. I guess it's just their strategy to reset the amount of pot money before it become billions. Thank you.

It's really hard to win back the trust of the Filipino people. The leaders must strive harder. It's really disappointing that even on lottery games,people doubt the government's credibility.
