It is out, just not locally for Singapore.
You can download the ICS firmware and flash it via ODIN...

I read somewhere that Samsung is planning to release the update for South East Asia in early Q2.

The update for Singapore is not yet out...
If you want ICS, you may download the firmware and use ODIN to flash it...

Looking at how all these manufacturers are rolling out the outdates.. I mean updates, I would be happy if they can give us official ICS by end of Q2, which is end of June.

I have no idea since I've never tried using the official update via Kies before...
If it doesn't work you could just flash the firmware via ODIN or flash a previous firmware and do the update though...

If you are not very tempted by ICS, and the steps seem daunting I would advise you to wait out for the local update...

Install Kies (for the drivers) and ODIN, and the firmware you want to flash.
Make sure Kies isn't running, put phone into download mode and flash the firmware.
That's just a simple summary, but I'm pretty sure there's some guides out there...

[ROM+Guide]Official i9100 Firmwares KL1/2/3/LA2,4/LB2,LPE/Q/7/2/F/S/4/7 Download - xda-developers
Samsung Galaxy S2 - Guide to Rooting your phone (Always evolving and ever changing!)

Take note that flashing custom roms/kernels (via ODIN) will increase the binary counter (and risk voiding warranty), whilst flashing official stock roms will not increase the counter (even if from another region)
You may consider rooting and flashing a custom kernel and/or rom, there's the Triangle Away app for ICS to reset the binary counter anyways.

Officially, it is already available for our indonesian counterpart. they uses the same firmware, modem and it is multi-csc.

i flashed dxlp7 via odin. there is no need to back up your data, as after upgrade everything remains the same, even for the crappy apps your provider provides.
