I've just re-read SIA300's posting of 13 November. You would serve yourself well by doing the same.
He is absolutely accurate with his facts and assessments and in particular please take note that any offer to join SIA Cargo as an FO would be on "local" terms and hence would not attract housing allowance (or education allowance).
It is difficult, therefore, to imagine how you would be able to financially survive in Singapore with a wife and two children - the latter, of course, not attracting an allowance to ease payment of school fees and perhaps finding it hugely difficult if not impossible to join the State education system.
Please tread very carefully and be under no illusion that, in the event you were to join SIA Cargo and then were to put a foot wrong and be terminated, your bank guarantee cash would be gone and you would be remorselessly pursued for any outstanding bond balance.
