Similar to Heroku, the closest I can find is AppFog where you can choose to 
deploy in Singapore: https://www.appfog.com/

There are other public Cloud Foundry based services:

https://run.pivotal.io/
https://console.ng.bluemix.net/home

Pivotal's offering works out to $10.80 per month for a 512mb instance.
