This para proves that cyclists are allowed to ride two abreast.
Stop rehashing this issue over and over again. The LTA has already clarified this numerous times.
If you aren't happy with the law as it stands then see your MP and ask him to bring it up in Parliament.
Two proceeding abreast bicycle could be when one is overtaking. That mean you cannot be the 3rd to overtaking. You must wait for the other to finish overtaking then you overtake so as not be the 3rd bike overtaking the other 2nd bike overtaking.
If it's allowed, it will say so like how it is allowed to be on the "left hand edge of the roadway and in such a manner as not to obstruct vehicles moving at a faster speed".
Read again,
Travelling abreast prohibited
7.—(1) No bicycle shall be ridden on the right of another vehicle proceeding in the same direction except when overtaking such other vehicle.
[S 773/2004 wef 01/01/2005]
Also, notice Every bicycle shall be ridden close to the left hand edge of the roadway and in such a manner as not to obstruct vehicles moving at a faster speed.
You do understand what Every bicycle means don't you? Not some bicycle, not one bicycle, it's Every bicycle.
Bicycle to be ridden on left side of road
8. Every bicycle shall be ridden close to the left hand edge of the roadway and in such a manner as not to obstruct vehicles moving at a faster speed.
