UAE, October 5, 2015 – In line with its commitment to making a positive change in the lives of its customers, Al Ansari Exchange, the UAE-based foreign exchange and worldwide money transfer company, presented the Grand Prize of AED 1 million to the lucky winner of Al Ansari Exchange Summer Promotion 2015.

Organised under the theme ‘Be a Millionaire and Change Your Life,’ the promotion was a turning point in the life of Mizanur Rahman Abdul Wahab from Bangladesh, a worker in a livestock farm in Abu Dhabi, who won the Grand Prize after sending AED 1,039 to his family in his hometown. The 37-year old Mizanur Rahman received the good news with mixed feelings of surprise and happiness.

I want to provide good education for my children and look forward to investing this money in establishing a private business that would help make a positive change in the lives of many youngsters in my hometown in Bangladesh. I also plan to buy a car in order to be able to visit new places across the country,” said Abdul Wahab.

Other winners were also awarded with the additional prizes of AED 50,000, AED 25,000, AED 15,000, and AED 10,000.
