Foreign qualification will be preferred

[rover_commando]

Pakistan came into being on 14th August 1947 (67 years, 03 months and 27 days ago), but unfortunately we are still in a state of slavery.
Career planning is sensitive issue for all, everybody is struggling for perfection. While going through newspapers, on job vacancy advertisements I usually notice "Foreign qualification will be preferred" written on most of the advertisements.
Once I appeared in an interview. As the interview was for a BS-19 position, the Secretary himself headed that and in the during he told me that the other competitor is UK qualified, while I am a simple Pakistani and with having my entire academics from Pakistan I am no match with him.
In reply I informed them that:
. Even after 67 years of independence, we are still slaves of Englishmen and we are still doubtful about our educational institutions that they can even produce literate!
. In Europe and America there are chips, whoever goes there, they fit a chip in his brain and the person becomes a great leader.
. A person who has been in UK for a 2 year degree program, we consider him more qualified than those of local institutions, it means those who are throughout qualified from UK are superior to those of 2 years. So why are we waiting? We should immediately call back English to rule this country as we are totally crap.
. So lets start from President, Prime Minister, Minister and then according to my knowledge Mr. Secretary you are also not foreign qualified so lets appoint a foreign qualified Secretary.
================================================== =
I never took my rejection on heart, but just thought that at least Mr. Secretary will not ask the same to another person again.

this is very much true sir but we must remember ours( universities) are mere producing cargo scientist,,secondly those who go abroad firstly prove themselves here and get a chance to study abroad...here universities teach you theory but not practical. when government changes policy and increase practical % It becomes even more easy for universities to sit and distribute marks like candies...this is what i have observed anyone can contradict....if this might not be situation our universities could also be among top ones.....

We never appreciated our talent. Just take Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Adnan Sami and so on (Artists) we realized their talent as they performed in another country.
In UK, there are some universities, which are being operated through residential banglows, you just get admission and are awarded with a degree

this is so true and very sadistic. even i was so shocked when i was told that to get success in academia, I must have a foreign degree. when i responded that the talent will unveil itself the true worth, i was given a comparison of pay scale of teachers with local degrees and teachers with foreign degrees. it was a hell difference. so you pointed out a very good point but this is Pakistan...yahan sub chalta he...
