Thank you, Daniel. That's one step closer to ID-ing this one. :)

As with everything else in Singapore, I can't tell what species this is, but I can tell you it's likely in the Tetragnathidae family of long jawwed orb weavers. Here's a guide page for the species found in the U.S. http://bugguide.net/node/view/1958
