I agree, the three SW listings are ambiguous, and the handshape could be an S, an A, a modified T or even an M.  We need a video.

Hello Hector and SW-list friends , 
 
thank you very much fort
his message – and what an interesting source for many more country – name-signs.
We should discuss some of them on the list – smile! 
 
In this case Singapore – hm –
SignWriting is so much better to understand. Does it feel like a wrist-circle
movement or is it more kind of circle with the whole lower arm moving. And what
about the hand shape – looks pretty much like an “A-hand” and it would feel
better to touch the back of the left hand with an “A-hand” bit from this drawing
we cannot learn that – smile – 
 
I am grateful for your
feedback 
 
Stefan ;-)
