“…Syrian accountants perceived globalisation and AISs as Anglo-American and imperialistic, a threat to the Syrian accounting profession and local jobs, and they anticipated problems in adopting and enforcing IASs without better training, but they believed globalisation could better their lives and the profession (Gallhofer et al, 2011).

“…Hambatan lain dari adopsi standar akuntansi internasional adalah bahwa keseragaman penerapan standar akuntansi yang sulit karena setiap perusahaan mempunyai tujuan dan strategi yang berbeda, kebijakan investasi dan pembiayaan serta situasi politik yang berbeda pula (Ball, R., 2006). Lebih lanjut, seperti diketahui standar akuntansi internasional dikembangkan di negara-negara maju yang akan lebih cocok untuk pengambilan keputusan di negara maju, dan belum tentu akan cocok jika diterapkan untuk pengambilan keputusan pada negara berkembang (Perera, 1989a Penelitian ini akan memfokuskan pada tinjauan atas rencana adopsi IAS 41: Agriculture terutama terutama oleh perusahaan-perusahaan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia yang berbasis agrikultur.
