Because in some sense, your CV looks better if you come from EDB than if you were to come from MTI. It is well known that EDB is a place where they groom scholars. Doesn't hurt that the role of EDB allows you to interact with all those big MNCs overseas. Very easy to network and jump when opportunity arises. That's why people clamour to go there.
