Big advertisements are appearing in the national press luring people to buy prize bonds. For the last two years or so prize bonds have become a national scam involving the Ministry of Finance, State Bank and the CBR.
Previously the prize winning numbers were published in the newspapers but after the military take-over the list of prize winning numbers has not been published.
The public has not heard or read of big prize winners' names.
In the past the prize draws were a public affair under prominent citizens and the prize draws were shown on PTV, now it is a hush-hush affair. Why?
Can the Central Directorate of National Savings publish the names and addresses of large prize winners in the past two years?
I request the NAB to investigate this subject. In the mean time the public should be cautious when they buy prize bends.
