Across Asia, people have a particular fascination with lottery games. While this can be attributed to many factors, the most obvious is that people believe playing these games is an effective way of ensuring good luck and fortune in their lives.

Unlike in the west, where gambling is generally viewed as an unsavory activity, Asians are much more likely to play the lottery as a form of social entertainment or a hobby. This is perhaps because of the widely held belief in a ‘law of karma’ that states that positive thoughts, words and deeds will bring about good luck while negative ones will lead to bad outcomes.

A man in China recently won $30 million in a regional lottery. He hid his identity from his wife and children until he decided what to do with the prize money.

The prize was a 219 million yuan (US$30.6 million) jackpot from the Guangxi Welfare Lottery. The winner wore a bright yellow cartoon costume to collect his winnings, according to the Nanning Evening News.

It’s not the first time a winner has opted to hide his identity from his loved ones. In fact, it’s become a common strategy for winners who want to keep the excitement of their winnings quiet until they decide what to do with them.

There are many different types of lotteries available in Asia, but there are a few that are especially popular. In addition to the traditional lotteries, there are also sports lottery games which allow players to bet on sporting events.
