Because CC is an English law firm that does a two-year training contract (so trainees are getting paid about $7k for two years before getting the NQ pay which is about $10k or so), whereas other firms do the Singapore law training contract which is merely six months - CC does pay more obviously but they are an outlier and only offer a handful of training contracts in Singapore each year.
