SQ have never favoured overseas basing. It was thrust upon them when an ex BA Captain bye-passed Ops and went to the board and convinced them that O'seas basing was the way to go. The board handed down a dictat that crews should be o'seas based. Immediately you had a disruptive influence as now a whole chunk of the roster, including many LHR trips, were out side the reach of the mere mortal based in Singapore, be he Chinese, Malay or Expat.
I doubt very much that SIA will ever offer a basing outside Singapore in the future.
