The Aga Khan University-Examination Board: Does Pakistan Need One?

yes i quite agree with manto here -- this article is actually sectarian in nature and a thinly veiled attack on the aga khanis ability to run an examination board --

Romair, well said. Rock on.

I have no idea whether AKU-EB is good or bad for Pakistan.

But I support anything with the words Agha Khan, Ismaili, or Memon in it. Agha Khan is a huge success himself (or his great grandfather, or whomever). Anything these guys put their hands on, education, bank, architecture, business etc., turns to gold. One of the biggest real estate agents of my area, and of all of Canada, is one of, ``them.``

Only group of people in Pakistan, that I know of that can even give the Jewish businessmen a run for their money..............

This is a welcome step towards privatization of education in Pakistan. Greater privatization will reduce the influence of the education burueacracy.

an aparthied system of education is absolutely un-acceptable. There should be a uniform syllabus through out the country and there should be one education board. For management purposes this board may be divided at division level.

The there will be so much rush of boards which we lead to the increased rate of corruption in educational system. Anyhow, the corruption is yet in full pace now.

Yes.... Turning It into an irrelevent Us Vs Them debate is a Stupidity....which

unfortunatley these religio-political Entities do not Understand...

I agree with the author....that is will create yet another `` Educational aparthied`` between

the already fragmented polity. Beside How much more of this ad-hoc ism will go on...

this ad-hoc ism has never really delivered any concrete result so far...

You article is BS... and inspired by typical nonsense that the mullahs spew... Agha Khanis` contribution stands head and shoulders above this Mullah Qazi and his idiotic followers... let me not repeat who all was Agha Khani in Pakistan`s history both political and social...


The Agha Khan University Education board is cheap and easy education for all.... What is so wrong with having a quality educational system at a very cheap price... do you think paying Cambridge International and London University is better?? Losing precious FOREX is better than having Agha Khan University Educational Board... I know a number of students and schools in Karachi who have switched from the GCE O level system to the Agha Khan HSC system...

I am afraid you just don`t understand the real intent behind establishing such a board... it is to end the educational apartheid that already exists with those going to American Schools, or taking O/A IGCSEs and those studying Urdu medium....
