If you feel any one insecure who makes you to understand something for your well-being then it does not matter at all. It has been happening from ages. If you cannot understand something it does not mean the other is insecure. What every one aims to do while sparing time for others is something that perhaps no one can understand except him and I believe every body can have his own objectives for whatever he is doing.
Pakistani ACCA's representation is asked because I always stress that Pakistanis should reconsider their exercising of ACCA option while they are at Pakistan and they have to be located at Pakistan.; since they are being misguided and the hard earned money of their parents is being squeezed out by others. I always pointed out how Pakistani ACCAs (without any other tag) are taken to be at UK. Here Pakistani ACCA means the one who qualifies ACCA while residing at Pakistan and completes his training in Pakistan.
I know "majority" cannot understand what I am mentioning because had it been the capacity to do so, it would have been understood far before. Time is the best teacher and people learn by self experience; so I am no body to convert any oneâs mindset. I only find it expedient to let the others know what I deem most suitable; and this also I do in majority of cases when am inquired to do so or circumstances warrant me to do so as a member of this forum. Every one is independent in his judgment and is of course independent in his decisions.
ICAP has around 4000 members while comparing hundred thousands of professional accountants on the globe coming from various back grounds. Note it; it is hundred thousands or may be more. The political seats are given based upon how strong voice you have politically (and not professionally) as a nation and as a country. This voice has nothing to do with expertise, qualification, quality of a particular institute etc. Rather, it finds its roots in much different and detailed perspective. Still Pakistan has its representation through Mr. Abdullah Yousaf at IAASB from last three years and his tenure has been extended for a further three years period. I agree this is a thing of inspiration and happiness for our-selves.
Notwithstanding the above, LETâS see why our voice is low globally; our nation is begging the whole world, be it US, Europe or "friends of Pakistan". We have an ugly image of Talibanization, we are terrorists, rigids, beggars, bribers, dishonests, starved, dependents, outdated, backward, illiterate, failures, and ill-mannered, when our picture is conveyed to any one in the world at whatever forum or level.
This does not leave us even if we are better at certain times and certain places and I believe we are better at certain times and certain places. Thatâs why we produced the people who have represented us in so many fields of life. We have people like Nusrat when music comes into question, we have people like Faiz, Gul Jee and Sadqain when art is discussed, we have best players of the world like Jahangir, Jan Sher, and many more when sports are analyzed, we have Dr. Salam (Pakistani Nobel prize winner; a non-muslim Pakistani) when science is questioned, we have people like Zafarullah Khan (President of International Court of Justice; a UNOs court, and also President of UN General Assembly; a non-muslim Pakistani) when representation at United Nations is discussed; we have people like M.A. Jinnah and Z.A. Bhutto when law, leadership and politics comes under question, we have men like Mustafa Kamal when utmost hard work is analyzed and we have people like Masud Ali Naqvi (who leads KPMG in 17 countries of south asia) and Abdullah Yousaf (a member of IAASB) when profession is discussed.
Yet, these all facts fail to raise our solid and louder voice due to enormous factors when the country and nation as a whole is viewed since we unfortunately are sighted as meager, dwarf, dependent and handicapped.
In these circumstances if a 4000 compared to hundred thousands (may be more) has succeeded to find a place to represent the worldâs apex body, it is an achievement.
