It’s nothing to do with stakeholders in the legal industry. Just look at Malaysia, do you know how much junior associates fresh out of the bar are paid? Look also at our south East Asian neighbours...

Back when Goh Chok Tong was still PM, he aspired Singaporeans to Swiss standards of living, now I see we have to resort to comparing ourselves to third rate developing countries in SEA in order to give ourselves a pat on the back. All the while ignoring the fact that standards of living for junior lawyers has been declining while the cost of living are rising faster than our paychecks.
Well done, my fellow learned friends for setting the bar ever lower.
