1) No one knows.
2) PDF (yes, but not ideal depending on the complexity of your document, due to small screen size of eink readers in general.) ePub (Yes, if the epub is not copy protected, non-DRMed, use Calibre to convert the document to kindle format)

You may find it hard to believe that Kindle is not available in a modernized country like Singapore? According to the internet source, it was said that this may have been due to copyright issues, some kind of ‘political’ reason, etc., and Amazon did not give any clear reasons on this matter as well. After all we are not alone, Kindle is also not available in many countries like Afghanistan, Algeria, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Brunei Darussalam, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, New Zealand, United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, Yemen and many more.
