First, you feel an earthquake that come from sea. Then water level drastically decrease, all of the sudden. Triggered by volcanic eruptions, landslides, earthquakes, and even impacts by asteroids or comets, a tsunami represents a vast volume of seawater in motion.
As the waves in the tsunami reach shore, they slow down due to the shallowing sea floor, and the loss in speed is often accompanied by a dramatic increase in wave height. The waves scrunch together like the ribs of an accordion and heave upward.
Tsunami attacks can take different forms. In certain cases, the sea can seem at first to draw a breath and empty harbors, leaving fish flopping on the mud. This sometimes draws the curious to the shoreline and to their deaths, since the withdrawing of the sea is inevitably followed by the arrival of the crest of a tsunami wave.
Of all this questions? Are we ready? Is the govt had a plane??

Just go to any beach in Singapore, observe and watch the waves closely. And see strange phenomenons happening like many fishes jumping from the water skeptically, loads of dead or alive sea creatures landing on the shore, animals on the land act strangely, with strong winds, forceful high tides & huge waves on the shore. Then feel some of the trembles or hollow sounds from far away offshore. These are the possible signs that you can look out for before Tsunami hits the mainland.
By the way, I've got a question in mind. Why are SO MANY people asking questions like if Tsunami will come? Do you really like a disaster to happen? Are you all concern about it or wishing it to happen?

The animals act weird and you don't have to worry because the government will inform to everyone if the tsunami heading.

If you see many dead sea cucumbers on the beach, that's a sign of an approaching tsunami.

When you are out for a family dinner at Geylang and a Thai lady came over, tap you on your shoulder and return you a change of $10 you forgot to collect last night.

I can see the "kiasi" culture in Spore is alive and well.
