For new account openings, it is now mandatory to provide TIN for all foreigners according to some new Singaporean laws beginning year 2017. But the RM did mentioned that they just want to make sure a depositor does pay taxes in their home country and not for other purposes.

If I have Maybank SG liao, is it easy to open CIMB SG?

Yes. The only requirement by CIMB Sg is that you have to transfer your first deposit to open a bank account with them from another Singaporean bank account. You can do that through FAST transfer from your Maybank SG account.

How to open without presenting in Singapore?

You can register yourself at cimb.com.sg. You don't need to be present there to open an account.
