With the aim of detailing issues and problems that confronted accounting in Malaysia during the forty year period beginning from independence in 1957 and ending just before the onset of the Asian Financial Crisis 1997-98 and where the data came in the form of published and unpublished documents and interview findings, the study has found that there were confusion over the identity of the accounting bodies the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) and the Malaysian Association of Certified Public Accountants (MACPA), accountants shortage, the presence of bogus accountants, disciplinary quagmire and accounting standards confusion. To explain the goings-on, the view of accounting as a social practice imbedded in a socio-historical context is taken up. This leads to the conclusion that the elite group had played quite an important role in shaping accounting in Malaysia to be nothing more than the repeated case of ‘the triumph of hope over experience’. Their (mis)conduct is apparent in regard to the MIA being inactive for two decades, the brouhaha surrounding goodwill accounting standards and the formation of the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (MASB).

International Financial Reporting Standards, commonly known as IFRSs, are uniform accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) in 2001. The Saudi Organization for Certified Public Accountants (SOCPA) from 1st Jan 2016 has announced its decision to converge their National Accounting Standard with IFRS. The standards will surely be going to influence the financial system of the country. Every country has its own Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). However, an understanding is needed to evaluate the adoption and awareness of IFRS among students and academicians in Saudi Arabia. The present study attempted to examine the awareness and interest of students concerning IFRS. This study has brought some hard facts regarding IFRS convergence in Saudi Arabia. The IFRS will only be able to yield fruitful results when all stakeholders are fully aware, interested, taken into confidence, and ready to cooperate with the directives of the Saudi Organization for Certified Public Accountants (SOCPA) for IFRS adaption.
