In singapore, I know none.
But 1,000 km north of where you live, there's city call bangkok
At its heart, Siam Square, there's one of the greatest Camera Shop of thailand (http://www.fotofile.net).
Cost of modifying is about $100, CLA included! S&H cost -- unknown. Service is 100% reliable. Most of IR modified cameras in Thailand start their life from here

If you want to remove the IR blocking filter and refit an optical glass filter (to re-calibrate focal plane), you can do it at Canon Singapore. Optical glass has to be purchased from Edmund Scientific (Cost 40 $) and cut to size at any glass works. Canon will charge 120 $.

Original Canon filter is 2.7 mm thick.
Edmund Scientific glass is 3 mm thick. So you will have to use spacer washers as detailed in the attached link to get the correct focal plane.
Part no of Glass is # 32-741 Windoew Glass 48 mm x 84 mm costing 40 S$.
You have to cut it to 27 mm x 19.6 mm or 28 mm x 22 mm depending on Camera model. Better cut to both sizes and give to Canon along with washers.
