Aslam O Alikam to all forum members

Nowadays I am in confession to make decision regarding my ACCA course and I need you help to make a right/good decision.

I would be very grateful to you if you please spend your valuable time to read my post and advice me to make a right/good decision.


SITUATION
I am AAT qualified and studied UK taxation and audit in this course now I am studying for ACCA. I recently appeared in ACCA 1.3 paper and would start my ACCA part two in Feb. 2005 and here I have chance to choose either ACCA UK stream or international stream. If I choose UK stream than AAT would help me to pass taxation and audit paper in ACCA (AAT cover 70% of ACCA course). On the other hand, if I choose international stream than of course I have to spent bit more time on taxation and Audit paper.


MY FUTURE PLANNING
My plan is that as soon as I complete ACCA I would come back to Pakistan and start my career there.


QUESTIONS
1) Should I take UK stream or international?
2) Would my ACCA UK stream affect me in Pakistan? If yes than how?
3) how I can fulfil the requirement to work or practice in Pakistan (if I am UK stream qualified)
4) any other information which you think would help me to make a decision



thanks
