Dear mroneflower
In fact, a member of ACCA from any part of the world can become member of CGA Canada, without physically coming to Canada, through ACCAs MRA with CGA Canada, as long as he/she satisfies other requirements of CGA. It is a huge advantage for ACCA students specially in Pakistan. Which means after studies of ACCA, a student can get one North American designation (i.e. CGA) while living in Pakistan. So have both UK and North American designations in Pakistan.
Moreover, with due respect, I would disagree with your opinion about CPA (Pak). Having audit rights without proper infrastructure is neither good nor that simple thing. Similarly, having new institutes/ associations is a good thing in long-term, but in short-term students would most likely become victim of non-reputed and less market worthy institutes/ associations like CPA(Pak). Personally, I don't think CPA(Pak) would get audit rights in foreseeable future and Govt of Pakistan would allow it. However, any thing can happen there. This is just my opinion that may or may not be different from others.
Regards
