Northwestern for Management Consulting in Asia

I am a student at Northwestern planning to pursue a career in management consulting in the United States and potentially in Hong Kong or Singapore. I know that Northwestern is a major target for MBB (and most, if not all, consulting firms)'s Chicago offices, but what is its reputation like in Hong Kong and Singapore?
