ing as their real profession. The only source of receiving coach accreditation is actually through<br />
ICF, but due to the fact that not all people speak English, there are no accredited coaches in<br />
Kazakhstan yet.<br />
Kuwait A coaching body doesn’t exist yet. According to my knowledge, I am the first accredited profes-<br />
sional coach here in Kuwait promoting coaching and speaking the Arabic Language. <strong>Coaching</strong> is<br />
mainly asked for by global companies.<br />
Kyrgyzstan Business coaching has not yet visibly developed.<br />
Laos Business coaching has not yet visibly developed.<br />
Lebanon I do believe there is a great need for coaches in Lebanon and the Arab regions. But coaching is<br />
not advanced yet. I am hoping to create a code of ethics and bond with an international coach-<br />
ing association in the future. This would put the right system in place preventing any charlatan<br />
from using the coaching field for other purposes.<br />
Malaysia The awareness of and need for accreditation is gaining ground.<br />
[An ICF Chapter exists.]<br />
Mongolia Business coaching has not yet visibly developed.<br />
Myanmar Business coaching has not yet visibly developed.<br />
Nepal No specific answer given. [There is an ICF Chapter.]<br />
North Korea Business coaching has not yet visibly developed.<br />
Oman Business coaching has not yet visibly developed.<br />
Pakistan A lot of grass root work still needs to be done especially to establish coaching bodies, accredi<br />
tation and to bring together professionals on one platform. While sports coaching is highly de-<br />
veloped, business coaching is nearly non existent. Many people confuse coaching with mentor-<br />
ing or counselling or are simply not aware of the impact of coaching on business performance.<br />
Philippines There are more coaches who are self-proclaimed than those formally trained.<br />
[There is an ICF Chapter.]<br />
Qatar It is just beginning.<br />
Saudi Arabia [There is no coaching association. It seems, coaches are rather seen as trainers who generally<br />
should be well certified and professional.]<br />
Singapore Much as coaches may want it, many professional people do not put coaching on the same foot-<br />
ing as law, medicine, engineering, architecture (etc.). [A number of professional coaching asso-<br />
ciations is present and active in Singapore: the Asia Pacific Alliance of Coaches (APAC) is based<br />
in Singapore. Also there is an ICF Chapter Singapore and the Singapore Chapter of the Interna-<br />
tional Association of <strong>Coaching</strong> (SCIAC).]<br />
South Korea There is a high number of accredited coaches as well as coaches seeking and applying for ac-<br />
creditation. [Two ICF Chapters and one IAC Chapter exist in South Korea.)<br />
Sri Lanka The selection of coaches highly relies on personal assessment (there is no insistence on particu-<br />
lar qualifications or membership in coaching bodies). This approach is much more effective here<br />
than might be in a larger country such as the USA or UK, because most people know each other<br />
personally (or know someone who does).<br />
