Singapore is surrounded by land. From the north-west to the south-east, there is Indonesia (Java and Sumatra). From the north, it is the whole of West Malaysia. At the east, there is an island of Borneo. The faults lines are further out in the water, hence these countries would have blocked the waves before it reaches Singapore. However, if the earthquake happens between these countries and Singapore (unlikely but never hurts to just put it down), Singapore will be hit by a tsunami.

Singapore also does not afford to be disliked by other countries as Singapore has to depend on them for imports which include food.
