Triple Condo Draw for both UOB and OUB Credit Cardmembers

22 March 2002, Singapore - The United Overseas Bank (UOB) Group today congratulates the winner of the Mandale Heights condominium, Mr Lim Hwa Poh.

Mr Lim won the 2-bedroom freehold condominium at Novena, the first condominium to be given away in the UOB Triple Condo Draw, using his UOB Gold Credit Card.

"This is the first time in my life that I've won a prize! My wife and I couldn't believe our ears when UOB called to inform us that we had won. I've been using my UOB Credit Card every month since I got it in 1988, and I'm very happy with the service and the rewards that are provided by UOB," said Mr Lim.

Said Mr Francis Hsu, Senior Vice President of UOB Card Centre, "We are delighted that Mr Lim Hwa Poh, one of our loyal and long-standing Cardmembers, has won the condominium. Mandale Heights is an exclusive development and we are pleased to be able to offer Mr Lim a valuable investment that he can pass on to future generations."

"The merger of UOB and OUB has enabled us to utilise our combined resources and talent to offer the biggest rewards and best value to our Cardmembers. Apart from our Triple Condo Draw, Cardmembers can also enjoy a wide range of exclusive rewards, including shopping and dining for free, under the UOB Rewards Unlimited Programme," Mr Hsu added.

The condominium is one of three luxury condominiums that UOB and Overseas Union Bank (OUB) Credit Cardmembers stand to win in the Triple Condo Draw*, held from 1 November 2001 to 31 October 2002.
