Screen captures by Eric Draven.
It's been some years since I watched this film. Are the three children with hands over their ears the three lead characters in childhood ?

Hi STSH,
Yes they are lead characters in their youth.

Kong Lai Loh later changed her name to
Leila Tong Ling
Here's the personal info on her official site:

So they should be merged.

Thanks Fan. Merged.
This brings up another point.
This actress went under one name from 1991- 2000, and another from 2000 onwards.
Should we add a field for "as", in the same way IMDb does ?
In this instance, it would be Once A Thief ..... Cherie (child) [as Kong Lai Loh].

Once A Thief ..... Cherie (child) [as Kong Lai Loh].
I think it is confusing to add "[as Kong Lai Loh]" in the role category. People may be wondering whether it is a role name or actress name.
Actually, I wd prefer Leila Tong Ling & Kong Lai Loh remain as they were but with the other name as alias and a footnote that she changed her name in 2000. This will reflect better the changes. Also, I believe all other sources of information did not update the change of names.
