THE Straits Times is giving readers the chance to win a brand new car again this year to thank them for their long-standing support.
In the The Straits Times: A Part of My Life contest last year, accounts executive Ng Hai Chwee, 46, went home in a Volkswagen Touran Sport 1.3 TSI.
This time round, a Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI, again sponsored by Volkswagen Group Singapore, is up for grabs. The car is worth $68,000 without certificate of entitlement, insurance and road tax.
To qualify for the competition, readers have to find and cut out seven 'mini' Volkswagen keys from the newspapers. One 'key' is printed every day in each issue of The Straits Times from Friday until Aug 21.
Readers can submit the 'keys' on entry forms found in The Straits Times on Aug 15, Aug 16, Aug 21 and Aug 22.
The entries can be sumbitted only on Aug 22, at a venue which will be revealed in the newspaper the same day.
At the venue that day, magicians JC Sum and Magic Babe Ning will attempt to perform their biggest illusion by 'teleporti' the prize car from a secret location onto the stage where it will then be presented to the winner.
Mr Han Fook Kwang, editor of The Straits Times, said: 'We are very grateful for the support of our readers all these years - all 1.4 million of them who read us every day.
'We've tried over the years to make The Straits Times relevant to them and, wherever necessary, to make changes to the paper to meet their chaning needs. We will continue to find ways to improve our coverage both in print and online so as to grow our readership.'
In addition to the print contest, $10,000 worth of prizes are up for grabs, including a 50 inch plasma TV, cameras, phones, game consoles and mini laptops in a three-week online promotional contest launched last Thursday.
Readers can submit entries online to say how The Straits Times is a part of their lives.
The contest, which runs across the SPH AsiaOne Network, including straitstimes.com, will end Aug 27.
