Incorrect, unless he's talking about making simple syrup with white
sugar. That still wouldn't correlate to corn syrup. Neither would
honey. You don't say what you want to use corn syrup for so it's
anyone's guess.

He's talking about an Asian pork recipe. You don't need the exact
chemical composition, all mentioned will work as a substitute for
light corn syrup. In fact, if the recipe is old enough - honey was
probably the original ingredient.
