If so, in which proportion?

I wouldn't. The modern synthetic oils are usually ester or poly alchlyne glycol (PAG). It could cause damage to your engine, especially with seals. Synthetic 2 stroke oils are made for sustained high RPMs in racing situations. I doubt you'll be dropping a knee at the Isle of Man TT anytime soon on this machine.
My guess is that the original recommendation was probably a mineral oil or even castor based product (love the smell of Castrol R or Blendzall). In the USA it would be hard to find, but outside the USA Castrol Classic Oils (type that in your browser) and ask them via an e-mail questionare. Some of those guys really know old motorcycles. They may even be able to tell you the correct ratio to mix the oil.

No, No, No, and emphatically NO! Most older vehicles can't handle synthetic. Don't even think about changing to a synthetic oil until you check with a reputable mechanic who knows something about your bike. I wanted to put synth in my H-D XL1200, but was advised against it by the service manager because of the milage on it, and the type of riding I do. If you want to keep that little classic's heart beating, then check first instead of paying through the nose later.

yes you can if your scooter is having 2ST ENGINE with non led petrol and if my memory correct use it with 20:1 or 15:1 but not less like 25:1 becoz its kind of old one
