Someone please give Nat Ho a filial son of the year award.
The 36-year-old recently flew back to Singapore from Los Angeles, a flight that takes about 18 hours, or longer if there is a layover, to celebrate his father’s birthday.
And to top it all, he had to sit next to a passenger who was coughing repeatedly without a mask.
Speaking to Lianhe Wanbao, the actor and singer said: “I traveled with Qatar Airways and for the flight, we had to wear a mask and a face shield. But the passenger sitting next to me did not put the mask on after eating.” . He spoke very loudly, changed seats with his friend and coughed constantly. “
Since the flight was full, Nat couldn’t change seats. As said passenger was quite tall with a large physique and did not speak fluent English, Nat decided to bite the bullet and did not dare to remove his mask and face shield during the entire flight.
He added: “If I was infected with Covid-19, I would be really angry! I have been obediently staying home since March, so if I had been infected, I would be very aggrieved.”
Nat packed his bags for Los Angeles in July 2019 to take a year-long music production course at the private Icon Collective music school.
He graduated in June 2020 with a stellar GPA of 3.85 and has successfully applied to remain in the US until August next year, intending to focus on composition and music production. She also hopes to find internship opportunities in the American music industry.
But for now, he is back in Singapore and has completed his two-week quarantine period. While serving her quarantine, Nat sadly suffered from a fairly severe jet lag. She woke up at three or four in the morning and only managed to fall asleep again around ten at night.
What lifted his spirits while he was in quarantine was the food that his mother, grandmother and aunt cooked and brought to the hotel where he was staying.
He said, “They made pork belly, char siew, and beef brisket. It was definitely better than the hotel food. I felt so blessed.”

Nat admits that he has probably gained weight since he returned to Singapore. But since you’ve waited a year to sample your mom’s food, you’ll just lose the extra pounds once you’re back in the US.
The night his quarantine ended was the night he celebrated his father’s 63rd birthday with the family.
“I am very happy to be able to celebrate with my family and take photos together. This makes me feel happy. Since I am so far away in Los Angeles, simple things like that have become very important,” he said.
