EON CONTEST EXTENDED TO 21 MAY 2000

If you are one of those people who intends to enter a contest and then forgets to do so till the closing date has passed, EON has been thinking of ‘forgetful’ people like you. It has extended the ‘Guess The Number Of Shuttlecocks Contest’ to 21st May 200 to enable contestants from all corners of Malaysia to participate.

“The second phase to display the shuttlecock-filled Proton Wira at Stadium Putra during the championship will allow many of the out-of-town spectators the opportunity to attempt the contest with a full view of the fully-laden car,” said EON public relations manager Fauziah Abdul Aziz.

The shuttlecock-filled Proton Wira, currently on display at the EON headquarters in Glenmarie, Shah Alam, Selangor, is scheduled to be displayed at the Stadium Putra in Bukit Jalil, Selangor, during the Final Rounds of the PROTON-EON Thomas/Uber Cup KL 2000 championship from 11th May until the end of the finals on 21st May.

Currently, the official contest postcards are available from various participating EON showrooms, authorised dealers, service centres and service dealers nationwide. From 11th May onwards, the contest postcards may also be obtained from the ticketing counters at Stadium Putra during ticketing hours.

For the convenience of spectators, drop boxes for the contest postcards will be located at strategic points in Stadium Putra. Alternatively, contestants may also send their entries by post. Only official contest postcards are accepted for this contest.

The “Guess The Number Of Shuttlecocks” contest, organised and sponsored by both EON and PROTON, will close at 9.00 pm on the night of the finals 21st May 2000. The results are scheduled to be announced the following week.

The grand prize is a Proton Wira 1.6XLi automatic and there are ten other consolation prizes of RM1,000 each to be won.
