Lilioceris is a genus of beetles in the leaf beetle family, Chrysomelidae. The genus was first scientifically described in 1912 by Edmund Reitter. Wikipedia

it’s likely to be Lilioceris impressa, yes. Though not certain, because this belongs to a species-groups of very similar species that are basically impossible to identify from a photo, and overlap in their ranges. Aside from L. impressa, there is also L. egena reported from S’pore. Michael Geiser
