On February 26 this year, a jackpot of 5.34 billion New Taiwan Dollars for the Power Lottery was won at the 'Da Hao Fa Lottery Store' in Sanmin District, Kaohsiung City, with a single winner. The lucky winner, a 50-year-old truck driver, bought a $300 computer-selected Power Lottery ticket while waiting at a red light while riding a motorcycle to meet a friend. He became an instant billionaire and generously donated over 26 million dollars to charity. This jackpot was the ninth in a row and the largest amount awarded this year. Earlier in January, a young office worker also won over 100 million in the lottery after buying tickets since his university days.
