While I appreciate your sentiment and objectives, in this case we are talking about Singapore - one of the most affluent Asian cities. The standard of living, health, safety is probably better than most Western countries. As other have pointed out, if awards like the Michelin one can provide recognition and support for actual third world countries, then it will start to make the difference you are looking for. I eagerly await to see if we will see street vendors in places like Vietnam, Cambodia, Bali, Bangladesh etc. being nominated/winning stars.

A street vendor got a Michelin star in Singapore because it is such a super rich place. As mentioned even the lack of a dependable supply chain in these poorer countries would be crippling to the last 5% Michelin requires.
