In Pakistan 72 percent of population are connected to mobile phones and only 12 percent having a bank account, said Hammad Rabbani of Waseela Bank while addressing a discussion forum organised by Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) here, Monday.

He said the telecommunications companies are trying to convert those 12 percent into 72 percent and leverage their customer base through mobile banking services. Hammad explained this while talking about mobile cash, a new money transfer service introduced by cellular companies.

The ACCA's discussion forum was attended by the employers of telecommunications and banking sector in Pakistan.

This forum was based on theme that what challenges accountancy profession will face globally in coming years due to changing world economic climate and business environment. The report on which this discussion forum was based titled "100 drivers of change for global accountancy profession" researched by ACCA's Accountancy Future

Academy and Institute of Management accountants (IMA), USA.

The panelists talked about their innovative business models and how telecomm and banking are coming together to deliver the services to their consumers in Pakistan.

Noor Aftab, head of ACCA Islamabad, highlighted the importance of these forums which define the future of accountancy profession

Some religions think saving money is devil, such as tibetan, black water ,if you don't know, teach yourself first.
being a tbetan, donate 50% to GOD, spend 50% to whatever is a correct lifestyle.
but they are rich, their have livestocks and tough tibetan dogs and they soul are very clear, never cheating and raping.
on the other hand, EU guys may have many bank accounts, but they are bankrupting.
btw, i likes your old avatar. the big beard one, the new one looks mature and smart, does not match you.

Blackwater donates 100% to God. He throws up all the money he earns towards the heavens, whatever God wants he keeps, whatever falls down is his.

The person in his Avatar is Shaheed Nawab Aktar Bugti, Baloch leader killed by Pak Army.

Enjoy Singh's joke :

Pakistan's mobile penetration was 66.5% as of Mar 2012. Unless Pakistan's mobile market has witnessed explosive growth in the past few months, for which there's no evidence, or I am conflating the author's message to imply mobile ownership and not mere mobile usage, this figure is exaggerated.

Islamabad

This is nothing to be proud of, all developing country with poor infrastructure has this characteristics, Ethyopia has 80% of their population using cell phones to pay bill, checking payroll, and transfer money. China played an important role there, since all of their telephone exchange, network and cell phones are made in China.

India also, has this characteristics, most indian does not have a land line in home. they use cell phones since the latter is available.
