If you’re not habitually resident in the UK, you will not be adopting under UK law. You’ll need to follow the laws of the country where the adoption is taking place. See GOV.UK for guidelines on adopting a child from overseas.
We can only issue a letter similar to what the MSF requires if the host country is a signatory to the 1993 Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Inter-country Adoption. Singapore is not a signatory, so we are unable to issue any such letter.
The British High Commission in Singapore is unable to give any further advice on adoptions. You should seek legal advice on this.

These unscrupulous people target gullible persons who fall into the trap, little realising that such adoptions are illegal. The lack of inputs for proper procedures for legal adoption and hasty sentimental considerations are exploited for exorbitant sums of money. Tough times call for tough measures. This business of criminal trading of children must be checked with an iron hand.
