Other people also commented on Hong’s IG post regarding their opinions and insights. 

User @whoistheac said that Apple looked like the one giving the certificate, while @wktanwilliam was confused and asked “But wasn’t Apple a Sgporean all this while? She was from?” 

Hong was a Mediacorp artist from 1999 to 2001 and appeared in shows such as Portrait of Home and The Little Nyonya. 

In July 2022, she received her Singaporean pink identity card.
