Hi Anthony,
Welcome to ButterflyCircle.
I believe this is a moth caterpillar, so I'm moving it to the Moth Forums. Let's see what Roger's opinion is, as to what the family or genus of this cat.

This cat has an unusual arrangement of prolegs.

Erebidae, Erebinae - Thyas sp.
Looks very close to Thyas juno (which I've reared in HK), although T. juno and the closely related T. honesta both occur in Singapore.
cheers, Roger.
