Wouldn't feel bad about the behavior of your basenji. I got mine six years ago and he acts a lot like yours. I kennel trained him and when I have company he goes in the kennel till he settles down. When I let him out I just tell people to be still till he checks them all out then he is fine. A lot of times he acts like he is going to attack me if he doesn't get his way vicious snarls and all, but I have learned it is just that an act . He also acted vicious around other dogs but after introducing them properly he gets along great. We have recently got him a new basenji mixed sister to play with, after the snarls and viciousness he loves her very much. I wouldn't be afraid to rehome your basenji, it at least give someone a chance to see what they can do.
Where to find a puppy?

Hi, all. I'm new here. We are living in Singapore and are trying to find a Basenji puppy in Singapore or Malaysia or near here, but it proves to be challenging. Any suggestions would be very welcome. Thank you!

Have you checked with the Singapore Kennel Club? They also have a facebook page :

I also found a relatively new (2014) posting that has a basenji owner that you might contact for help:
