Mahin is right on track here.
Indeed, the best linux certs one can acquire are the RHCE or the LPI.
Unfortunately , in pakistan , there are no good training institutes that may help u in preparing for these certs.For taking these exams, too, there are no exam centres here in pak.mahin mentioned vu, i dont know if they conduct rhce or lpi exams.So one may have to appear for these exmas from some other country like singapore etc.

As for training material, indeed komputer i agree with u that these books publishers should sell books atleast those of linux at reasonable rates.
I paid a visit to urdu bazaar karachi.They have got some good books.But most of the good books are non pirate version and are quite expensive.The pirate ones are really cheap as low as rupees 150 per book but they are mostly old books.

I have got a really good ebook collection on various stuff and esp linux.
I have got some study guides on rhce and lpi exams from osborne and mcgraw hill,i have got some rhce exam simulators, video training guides from mark romaranski and some more stuff in electronic format on linux learning.

If u want the names of some good ebook titles on linux/rhce/lpi , feel free to contact me.I may be able to give u some links to download that stuff, if u got a fast connection.

The PTG interactive cyberclassroom on redhat 8 is an excellent video training guide for newbies who want to learn linux in short period of time.It is prepared by the world's leading linux expert mark romaranski and is available on 2 cds here in pak for only rupees 60..so do get hold of it.I already have my copy.

I can refer u to some more good stuff if u require.

Again, sorry for being late.
