No racist wisecracks or anything of that sort. If you didn't notice in the airport, Singapore is a multiracial country.
There are some crazy laws, but they make the place safe. If you're a smoker, watch where you smoke, some places have no smoking signs. Usually the bottom floor of apartment buildings are places that are non-smoking. And make sure you don't chew gum in public. Gum chewing is illegal, unless it's nicotine gum, I think.
Not much else I can think of besides laws and racism. So have fun!

Left hand drive, so don't look the wrong way while crossing.
No drugs party. Even if he is the judge son.
No shoplifting, even if of small value. Carries jail sentence.
Take your passport with you. You get hassles from police check.
No penknife. People are caned for having them at the wrong places.
No uninvited hugs. Its called molestation.
Don't carry condoms. Its give anti-vice the reason to detain you as a suspected streetwalker.

Tolerance and respect for other's culture/beliefs.
No drugs!
Endurance for the humid weather.
Racial Harmony is paramount... so enjoy it.
(Anyway... I can Never comprehend why people can practice racial discrimination anywhere...!?)
Should you happen to meet 1 or a few black sheeps... do not equate that all locals are thus.
Keep an open mind and a positive heart anywhere.

No drugs. Respect the women - one dressed in sexy clothes doesn't mean you can touch her.
