I think you've misread Eben's comments. By "American", he did not mean that it is American in _origin_, only that it is in accord with American _ideals_. I believe he meant it in much the same way that one might say, "Singapore is more American than America", meaning that the cultural qualities that distinguish America are even more pronounced in Singapore.
