This certificate is kept as a family memento as Mr Gwee Choon Gui (魏春贵 or Wei Chun Gui) supported the PAP in Nee Soon Constituency during the 1972 General Elections. It sheds light on the diverse roles of the individual. A typo error was spotted in the Chinese characters and it should be 魏春贵 and not 魏春桂. Mr Gwee is the brother of Mr Gwee Bock Huat and they are both co-owners of the Sin Sai Hong Opera Troupe （新赛凤剧团）. The troupe was first established in 1910 using another name and was performing gaojiaxi （高甲戏） back then. The troupe changed its name to “Sin Sai Hong” in 1936 and changed to performing gezaixi （歌仔戏） which was gaining popularity in the 1930s. It is the oldest Hokkien Opera Troupe in Singapore. The Sin Sai Hong collection donated to the National Museum also consists of old photographs, certificates and costumes.
