You should be able to find then at Challenger.
Prices from S$25-S$35.
However please note that not all usb-com (rs232) adapter will work well.

Shops like M Technic or ATF in Sim Lim Square will also carry these, but as Lee mentioned they do not work very well.

Your PC or notebook has no com ports?
