This is simply not a professional attitutde, In my opinion a professional comes out not from his qualification but attitude.
What the service ICAP's so called professionals have given to this profession. The market of CA is still not developed even after more than 25 years of Institute. A fresh CA in this country is still paid around 25K+Car and on average maximum growth upto 70K. I think that package is a medium size package. Still u can easily find some BCOM or ICMA qualified (another bad mouthed by CA's) are earning better than CA's.
What ACCA has done they had attracted a lot of students in Pakistan. That is their first phase and now they are really planning how to capture the job market for ACCA, and let me tell you that they are competent enough to compete to do that and ICAP can do nothing, absolutely nothing. As our Senior ICAP members are busy in creating there own enterprises and not concerned with the promotion of Accountancy Profession.
Pakistani sized economy needs thousands of Qualified Accountants, but many enterprenuer have not yet realized their needs, its the responsibility of the Accountancy Instititutes to make them realize that they need a qualified accountant.
Just barking that we r good we r good will not allow CA's to be remain competitive in this market.
My dear friends laws of this country are in the process of change, and to date most changes (especially Income Tax) are made in order to copy good practices in UK.
