Wait, how is it possible that Singapore is closer than Malaysia? I measured on Google Maps, and I got 377 km from the southern tip of Vietnam to Kelantan Province, Malaysia, versus 801 km to Singapore.

In the description before you enter the quiz it tells you to "Name the 20 closest that are closest. I don't think that Cambodia is a "closest".
