Prolific actor and online sensation Johnny Sins has extended his hearty congratulations to the full-time National Servicemen ORD-ing in 2020.
Johnny Sins congratulates NSFs
Sins, a veteran American actor known for his physically-demanding roles, shared a video dedicated to NSFs in 2020 who are ORD-ing, where "ORD" stands for "operationally ready date", but is also used as a celebratory statement marking the end of around two years of NS.
In his video, he wished the new graduates well in their future endeavours, and also used the word "Hormat", which means standing at attention:"I just want to congratulate you guys for finishing mandatory army conscription after two whole years. I want to wish you well in your future endeavours in university... Good luck everyone, Hormat everyone NS20, ORD OH."
"Hormat" also conveys an image of an erect, ramrod straight figure.
Sins, 41, has played a doctor, lawyer, teacher, astronaut, and plumber for his various onscreen roles.
Takes requests for US$109
Sins' hearty congratulations comes at a small price though.
He was engaged to give a shout-out.
Sins, who is also a YouTuber and "shout out specialist", takes shout-out requests on Cameo for USD$109 (S$152) for a short clip of himself relaying a message, such as for birthdays, weddings, or perhaps a graduating class.
This also means that it's likely that an individual from NS sent in a request to Sins for this paid engagement.
Sins, who has been in the industry since 2006, is considered one of the most popular actors.
He has won a coveted award in 2018, seen as an acknowledgment of his body of work.
