Chulaphan' reveals that the Treasury Department supports the issuance of the last 3 digits of the lottery after the Government Lottery Office opened a trial sale, with a good response. Mr. Chulaphan Amornvivat, Deputy Minister of Finance, said that after the Lottery Office opened a trial sale of the last 3 digits of the prize, it was considered that the public was interested in joining the trial purchase. On the first day, more than 100,000 tickets were sold. It is believed that the trial number of 5 million tickets per draw should sell out before October 31, 2024 because lottery tickets tend to sell out during the last days before the draw. The experiment of the last 3 digits of the lottery draw by the Government Lottery Office admits that there are both supporters and opponents. Since there is still the problem of the underground lottery, a new mechanism must be created to bring money into the system, to bring it back to use for the benefit of developing the country. Because playing the last 2-3 digits o f the lottery has been a way of life for Thai people for a long time, it is necessary to experiment with buying and selling for 6 months to assess the impact on digital lottery via the Paotang app and how it will affect the physical lottery. If it is sold for about 2 months, it should start to become clearer. If it has a large impact, it must be assessed to see what action should be taken. Admittedly, the last 3 digits, if there are many winners, the prize amount will decrease. If there are few winners, the amount of money will increase because it is a lottery. When testing the sale, people can buy it in some areas. And we have to see how to open up more sales representatives so that everyone has a chance to have new additional income. And we have to open up new representatives or not, in order to consider it clearly. Source: Thai News Agency
