Might be faster and cheaper to buy the game in Singapore and download only the updates
If you're not in a hurry you can also wait for the Steam Weekend sales. Sometimes they have the current games on sale and it could be cheaper than buying it from the shops. But it's not very common for the latest games, normally the older ones. I got my Left4Dead from a weekend sale on Steam last month.

I'll assume that you wanna run on Windows.

First you need to download the dedicated server software. I think you can download directly from steam, go to the "Tools" tab or something like that.

Then just configure and run the server

Teemax,

I've already installed the dedicated server software on Steam and can join the room in my L4D but the problem is why the game ask me to host locally instead?

Your client doesn't magically know that you have a dedicated server...

Welcome to the wonderful and messy world of server management


Anyway, now you need to advertise your server so people can join. Probably best if you can join the L4D SG server group. Learn some commands to join your server directly from the console as well. Head to Steam's L4D forum for more info.
