Law Studies

Why there are so many Singaporeans study law in the UK?

UK Immigration Officer: Purpose of visit?
Visitor: I'm here to study law, sir.
Officer: You know, you must have a lot of lawyers in
Singapore.
Visitor: Why do you say that?
Officer: Well, i've been here for a good twenty years,
and I'd say 80% of S'porean I see here say they're
here to read law.
Visitor: Oh, really? That's really something i never
knew. Hard to believe in fact.
Officer: Just you watch, then. You just stand here
until the next S'porean comes along, and I'll bet he's
here to read law.
