I dare say within Asia, Singapore has the best legal system.
Which other country can compare to ours. I doubt even Hk can.
I find it appalling that some of the overseas foreigners can eschew the need to take part b and become associates in say magic circle or white shoe just by virtue of being UK or NY qualified.
These people then come to sg to boss other sg qualified lawyers around as foreign Lawyers etc. Anyone facing this problem?
Should we subject foreigners to our jurisdiction and require them to complete both formal training and part A/B requirements in order to practice from our jurisdiction?
