From the OP

These aircraft will be registered under an Australian AOC, carrying an Australian registration, so therefore should be overseen by the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). How CASA will be able to effectively control and have oversight of the maintenance of these aircraft is yet to be answered. What seems to be clear is that these jobs will be under Singaporean terms and conditions


Just semantics really. These ships will be part of the Australian fleet and its only a case of 2 airfames overnighting in SIN.

Only difference is JQ exploiting the lack of jurisdiction of AU labour laws over "SIN employees". No different to what they have done with JQ NZ and QF has with JetConnect.

The result of the AIPA court case for equal conditions for the Jetconnect pilots will determine all our futures.

Better hope AIPA wins.
