https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/u...-service-plan/
"This Customer Service Plan has been introduced pursuant to the US Department of Transportation Final Rule on Enhancing Airline Passenger Protections II, and is applicable only for flights to or from the USA.

12. Singapore Airlines will allow consumers to cancel a reservation made using the Singapore Airlines web site without penalty for 24 hours after the reservation is made, as long as that reservation is made one week or more prior to a flight’s scheduled departure. Consumers will need to call our contact centre to cancel such online bookings.
i thought usually SQ website directs you anyways to the respective country site for ticketing if you book a flight from different country, i.e. if you buy ticket from SG to Melbourne the ticket will be issued in Singapore and no DOT rule applies, no matter whether you set location to US on the website
