Open Bank Account Without Work Permit?

10 years ago
I am currently living in the US and I want to open a savings account in DSB bank or OCBC bank in Singapore. Some of the bank web sites say that I must have the following:

Employment pass issued by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) of Singapore
or
The In-Principle Approval Letter issued by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) of Singapore.

I have neither of these documents. However, I plan to travel to Singapore in June 2014.

Any suggestions on how I can open my savings account?

Thanks.
