Given that Singapore is:

a. A Commonwealth country; and,

b. A common-law country

It is possible that Singapore is willing to to extend EC261/2004 in light of Canada's ruling. So while OP is not appeared to be covered, if OP is willing to pursue it, I bet Singapore will come up with a similar conclusion and force CX to pay up.

But again - it all depends on how OP is desperate for the compensation.

P.S. See the link if anyone is interested:
