I just wanted if any Expat (Aussie or AU PR holder salaried in Singapore) can confirm Salary income in Singapore is exempt from Tax in Australia under AU-SG DTA, meaning Expats in Singapore pay Income Tax in respective Country under Dual Tax Agreement (eg. Singapore Salary Tax in Singapore, and Australia Rental income Tax in Australia, and no Singapore salary Tax in Australia)
Below is what I got in IRAS website
