Making it work

With no shared working hours, someone is always early or late. Rotate who that is: alternate the hour between Los Angeles's morning and Singapore's, so the same person is not on at 7 am every week.

Keep calls short and the rest written. Updates, reviews and anything that can wait a few hours do better as a message with a deadline than as a meeting that costs someone their evening.

When you do meet, offer two or three hours that each ask a little of both sides, and let the group vote. People accept an early start more readily when they chose it.
