Business Journal added : The Economist


CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS [CA] LET LOOSE TO THE CORPORATE BUSINESS WORLD. CAN YOU BE THERE?
[From left to right]
PIC 01 : SINGAPORE SKYLINE - every company needs accountants
PIC 02 : CONFERENCE HOTEL - every business meeting needs business savvy accountants
PIC 03 : CA in Board meeting : hmmm... debit or credit? Where is Ms Menon?
PIC 04 : CA in Board meeting : (**smile** I think she passes the Porter's ABC tests [P3]) What's your telephone number again?

As professional students, especially at the final P-Level, it is imperative that you are in touch and aware of the LE PEST environment. Ethics, CSR, Strategies and accounting development are just some of them. You are encouraged periodically to go to the links I've posted on the side left bar under heading "International Business". The more you read, the better you are familiarising the terminologies common in business and professional world. Remember, you are coming out as Chartered Accountant which require that you provide broad corporate advisory that includes corporate turnaround, corporate finance, debentures, tax and audit (of course) or just plain business advisory services supporting your boss. In a multi-billion dollar consultancy services industry in Malaysia, estimated to worth RM$7.9 billion, these skills are crucial. So invest in your future as a student and an upcoming professional. I am confident you will.

The corporate jungle is both exciting and interesting. You learn businesses, organisational politics, meet interesting people all of which adds to your character development. You have wide variety career choices which include Strategic managers, fund manager, corporate financiers, Marketing director or entrepreneur. A world you would not want to miss, would you?
