    ETF liquidity is provided by market makers. Providing you buy or sell when the market is open (rather than trading using a limit order out of hours), you should have little problem in buying or selling ETF units. Remember - the ETF is comprised of shares in the underlying index, in your case, the largest market cap companies on the Singapore exchange, so the ETF liquidity is actually defined by the liquidity of the underlying shares.
