MBB Singapore vs T2 London FT

Hi WSO, I have managed to get a FT offer from MBB in Singapore and T2 (LEK/OW/OC&C) in London. Both of these were from summer internships. I know there are many aspects to consider when comparing these choices (such as work culture, country culture etc), but based purely on career progression/development, which would you all recommend I take up based on the following situations:

1a) I plan to work long-term in London

1b) I plan to work long term in Singapore

1c) I plan to work long term in the US (likely after a MBA in the US)

2a) I plan to stay in consulting

2b) I plan to exit into something else (not sure what at this stage tbh)

Thanks!

 

Personally, since I see myself working more in USA East-Coast or Europe (London, Frankfurt, Copp, etc.) -- I would definitly go for the Tier2 in London. However, I don't know much about Singapore.
