Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM in Milan is 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Singapore.
If you set up a recurring sync, 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM in Milan (2:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Singapore) is the natural home for it. Around 4 hours of overlap is enough to work comfortably, as long as meetings don't drift to the end of one team's day. Because Milan and Singapore don't both observe daylight saving, plan to re-check the overlap around March and November.
