<br />It seems to be an endless debate. I can't see any fruitfull finale over it.
Since, this CA thing is the first Pakistani qualfication which is being preferred over international qualifications and this is the matter of proud for all of us Pakistanis, and keeping in view this fact if one can't absorb this fact and denying this fact by one way or another, now this is unfair!

Who is denying the fact that CAs are preferred in Pakistan? I even said that if I were in Pakistan I would have done the same. I never denied this fact what I denied are the basis people used to prove this preference, mainly they used the following basis
- salary/job market
- curriculum
- pass rate
Curriculum is more or less the same and in many cases ACCAs curriculum is far more updated. Pass rate is different due to different examination structures - paper base - part/stage base system. Salary/job market differs from location to location i.e. if you are in Pakistan CAs definitely earn more (we all know the reasons), if you are in UK ACCAs are paid more and in independant places like Middle East both enjoy roughly the same respect and earnings. It concludes that no professional qualification is superior to the other in essence, it is other reasons that make a qualification preferrable. Using such basis to demean other qualifications is pure absurdity and calling it fun/joke/game is lunacy.
People who support such ideas are only going to harm themselves with such views and thats what I always like to convey to all professionals/students. Respect! so others can respect you! I know how to deal with such lunatics, I have done it in past and I will keep doing the same in future!
I hope after reading the above you will reasses your comments you posted earlier and now you may be thinking if it was something to laugh over or to condemn. Helping evil spread is even a bigger sin! teasing, disrespecting someone is no way funny!
Kind regards
