I would go with HKU-LBS provided tuition is the same and you are open to working in India.

With either of these MBAs its tough to land jobs in respective countries. HKU-LBS has a bigger brand in India so you would be better off if you have to return.

Thank you AbhiJ for the reply.

HKU-LBS tuition is around 20,000 USD more than Sauder's. Also, I plan to work for a couple of years in the respective countries.

In that case which one would you suggest.

You have to go with the gut feeling in this case. Why do you want to work only for 2 years ? 2 years work experience would not make much of a difference in your profile.
HKU - LBS is a 2 year program versus 16 month of UBC. If you plan to work in India then HKU is the way to go.
If you plan to work in Canada and are ready to fight for 6 months post graduation or even more (worst case scenario) to land a job then UBC is the way to go.

I meant to say atleast for a couple of years
Also, HKU has a 14 month FT programme.

These are tough questions for admissions consultants, since so much is a personal decision based on where you fit best. I generally recommend clients don't make the decision based on cost, since the right fit can often result in an entire career of better opportunities.
