Reputable UK VS Local University | Bonded scholarship, or not?

[Simba]

Hi all,

1. Would like to get some feedback with regards to the importance of where one had graduated from for university education.

To set the context,
Local Universities: i.e. NUS, NTU, SMU
UK Overseas Universities: i.e. LSE, UCL, King's

2. Is it worthwhile in terms of immediate and future opportunity costs in getting bonded to a company for 6 years for an opportunity to study overseas?
Looking at studying Economics in the UK, with a scholarship from SIA/ EDB.

All valuable feedback are appreciated!

It depends on the economy. But generally it's best not to get yourself bonded.
