Dont worry. AGC has very good work life balance. You will outlast your peers in B4 and will have a long legal career, unlike those who burn out and become in house counsels.

So I would say what do you want in the long-term? If litigation is not your cup of tea, then of the 2 options, go for Civil. If you want to be a good advocate then Crime is probably your best bet.
PIL work doesn't necessarily mean private practice, it can also mean PIL work in UN/other international organisations as well. IAD experience helps especially if you have a good pedigree to begin with, even for firms which do a lot of investment arb.

How many Singaporeans make it to PIL / UN / international org type work or positions thru private practice though? Even in the whitest of the white shoe firms.

To get a chance to be even nominated for these positions, mostly is funneled through AGC, MinLaw, MFA and/or some other official state backing. If the government doesn't back you, chances of your name even being considered for these positions is slim.

Few recent examples - latest head of WIPO and head of FATF are Singaporeans with long careers in public service.

CY quote: "Mr Lee Hsien yang warned me (=CY) a few weeks ago that the dictator and Shanmugam were planning to push through such laws that provide for imprisonment for lawyers who "abuse court processes"" ............................
hearsay?? insider info from LHY to CY?? LHY isn't keen to come out to take responsibility for his views, CY's a pawn being used by bigger forces as a spokesman aka fall guy?
