The sponsors are pleased to see the steady rise in the city's total vaccination rate,with members of the community moving towards the goal of getting over five million of Hong Kong's population vaccinated. To continue supporting the Government's vaccination programme,the sponsors are delighted to announce the extension of the registration for the grand prize offered in Phase 2 Lucky Draw to 30 November 2021. Vaccinated permanent residents aged 18 or above will have another chance to win a brand new one-bedroom residential apartment at Grand Central in Hong Kong,with a floor area of approximately 468 square feet and a value of approximately HK$12,000,000 as the Grand Prize,if five million or more Hong Kong people have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine in Hong Kong by 30 November 2021.

Mr Daryl Ng,Director of Ng Teng Fong Charitable Foundation Limited,says,'High vaccination rate would reduce the severance of the virus' impact on us and is the most effective way of steering us out of the pandemic and back to normal life. Given the tight supply of vaccines worldwide,the HKSAR Government has made tremendous efforts to provide sufficient quantity of COVID-19 vaccine to the public. The vaccination rate in August has been very positive,therefore we would like to extend the registration for Grand Prize of the Lucky Draw to provide more time for people,in particular elderly people who have not yet had their vaccination,to consult medical experts for professional advice. I hope those who are vaccinated will encourage their relatives and friends to take action. If the average vaccination rate per day can return to the level in August,the goal to get fivemillion or more of Hong Kong's population vaccinated,will be achieved soon.'
