Which state did you pass your exam? Guam?
If Guam, either public or non-public accounting experience counts. How about your bosses in the state-owned company?
If it doesn't work, you can try to transfer your credits to another state to obtain a certificate. Illinois, for example, does not require working experience as long as you have the 150 semester hours fulfilled. If you want a permit to practice, you'll need to fulfill the CPE requirements (120 hours every 3 years).
Straight from the Illinois State Board of Accountancy homepage (http://www.illinois-cpa-exam.com/files/scale.pdf)
Transfer of Credits by Candidate Who Has Passed the Examination as a
Candidate from Another Jurisdiction.
1) A candidate who has passed the entire examination in another
jurisdiction, but who is ineligible to obtain a certificate from such
other jurisdiction may transfer the credits and receive a certificate
in Illinois provided:
A) the educational requirements of the Illinois statute were met
at the time of initially taking the exam or at the sitting at
which the candidate initially conditioned or passed the
exam; and
B) the applicant would be entitled to an Illinois certificate if
the examination had been taken under the Illinois statute
and this Part.
2) The fee in force must accompany the application for a transfer of
credits for the entire examination.

I never try this before but based on the information on the site it should be able to solve your problem. Let us know how it goes!
