Toyota Football Fever
In about three months after the Toyota Football Fever radio show was first being aired in Red 104.9fm, UMW Toyota Motor, which is the exclusive presenting sponsor of the 36-week radio show today announces the FIFA Club World Championship Japan cup 2005 Contest’s lucky winner.
The radio show, hosted by popular sports presenters, Manvir and Sheldon, are being aired every Friday from 5.30pm to 6.30pm. It offered an opportunity of a lifetime to listeners by giving them the chance to win tickets to the final game of the FIFA Club World Championship Japan Cup 2005 at Yokohama, Tokyo by competing with other Toyota Football Fever listeners in a football-related quiz. The contest ran for seven weeks since 7 October 2005, which consisted of four preliminary rounds, two weeks for the semi-finals and it concluded with the final round being held in the seventh week.
Joe Wong from Petaling Jaya, Selangor should count his lucky stars, as he emerged as the sole winner of an all-inclusive trip for two to watch the FIFA Club World Championship Japan Cup 2005 in Tokyo, Japan. Whilst 11 consolation winners participated in the contest each received an Adidas Soccer Jersey.
¡°When they told me that I am the winner I was speechless and I am still overjoyed about it,¡± said Joe Wong. The Newcastle United Supporters Club Vice President said that entering the contest was not his intention when he called in to talk to Manvir and Sheldon. ¡°They told me that I was eligible to participate in the contest and I said I’ll give it a try. They were shocked when I answered all three questions correctly,¡± he added. Being the winner, he also emerged as the one with the highest scores during the final round by answering four out of five questions correctly.
UMW Toyota Motor would like to congratulate the Toyota Football Fever grand prize winner, Mr. Joe Wong and also to Red 104.9 fm for their collaborative effort in making the program successful.
Toyota Football Fever will continue to create a path for football fans across the nation to express themselves and share their opinions on the English Premier League (EPL) on air until the end of the 2004/2005 EPL season, which is in May 2006. The show will also continue bringing good news to its listeners by giving away exciting prizes to winners in the show’s weekly contests.
