HK is going to issue 3-yr infrastructure bond at minimum 3.5% but our T-bill is bordering around 3% only.

Reason is HKD is tied to USD and hence the USD interest rate. Currently, market interest rate on SGD is lower than for USD. You can see this in money market funds if you have a Moomoo or FSM brokerage account.
