Hi,

Japanese(Singaporean, Canadian...)

I'n not sure if 'Singaporean' is the term they use in Singapore. He could just write 'Citizen of Singapore'.

Best wishes, Clive

Singaporean is correct. I have been to Singapore. People told me about the Singaporean identity. It is not easy to understand their English dialect.
