Dear,
I believe ICAP is seriously working on the front you have pointed out. We can see a huge shift of focus if we compare the periods earlier to 1994 with the phase we witnessed from 1995 to 2002 (probably) and then with the phase covering period from 2003 to the date of this post.
However, this is not a closed ended process and we have to move on with all international developments. As far as the contents of syllabus are concerned I believe ICAP is not ignoring any thing material which other institutes of the world are focusing on.
As far as availability of guidance material, books, good teachers, libraries, and sources of information etc are concerned, I must ask you to keep in mind the limitations of this nation. We are a country the people of which face 12-20 hours load shedding as a routine process in the 21st century. We have the world's largest canal system the banks of which are still not built despite of receiving loads of funds for such rehabilitation. The "majority" of our public has no access to any quality doctors, lab, medication and health counseling facilities at all. The people of our villages have no option except to drink "DAMM KIYA HUA PAAANI" if some snake bites them. They don't even know what the venom fighting medicines are? Thee security situation of our country is of a unique nature. No one can tell with certainty that would he come back to home safely. There is a lot more to discuss the conditions which our nation is bound to face.
However, I don't believe that any of these conditions should make a reason for us to step back. Like-wise there is no reason for us to say that the issues of students cannot be resolved. The thing is, we have to improve with the time. We are dependent upon very limited resources at each facet of life.
Coming back to your point, I am convinced of your suggestions made at point NO. 1, 2.1, 3, 4, and 6 (with the modification that graduate degree of commerce or business should be available). I am not convinced with rest of suggestions. Why? I am short of time to comment on in detail.
I feel that the students should send their suggestions to ICAP and its education committee and board of studies. Students should also raise such issues at CASA level that is the most important forum for them. The contribution by every one counts.
Thanks for raising the voice.
Regards,
KAMRAN.
