I have a friend who works in Singapore and the contract is the same. She had to give 3 months notice and if she left early, the penalty was the salary she would have earned over that period (i.e. leave after 2 months, you owe the company 1 month of salary). It's more typically 1 month notice unless you're in a more senior role. I guess it was carried over from the UK.
