Just a work permit.

An equivalent of what you get in Singapore in 7 days is H1. H1B takes at absolute best - 6 months at 33% success rate.(If you miraculously get to file on March 31st and get to start October 1st.)

Permanent residency in US takes years. Even Diversity Lottery takes at least 18 months.
