The correct response in the example case would be both technically, "Singaporean" and "Singapore" are both correct but preferably and more understandably, "Singaporean" would be the most common one for use.

According to the wikipedia page for Singapore, the proper demonym in this case is "Singaporean".
Admittedly, you see plenty of patterns emerge for demonyms but there is no guaranteed rule, which means you simply must check if you're unsure. Just know that the proper term for what you're looking for is "demonym."
