Goa had been for long a place not known for violence but a fun, peace, homely, friendly, jovial community. The morals and ethics taught at home were passed on through generations. Respect for parents, elders, neighbours, religious leaders and religion, teachers, doctors, lawyers, etc was taught at home.
Somewhere down the line with the onslaught of progress we have missed the path to genuine prosperity. Progress is visible in all fields but not chiselled. What cropped up with it were ..............

Churchill Alemao & Goan Identity
|
|
Posted by : Arwin (UAE),2009-01-05

PWD Minister Mr. Churchill Alemao is right; Romi Konkani must be incorporated in the Official Language Act, to preserve Goan Identity. But then, if Mr. Alemao is really serious about protecting Goa's Identity, then I request him to fight against other critical issues, which are seriously destroying Goa's Identity. For instance, Large Scale land sales to non-goans & mega-projects favouring outsider, not only brings in un-necessary migrant work force but also brings in majority non-goan set ..............

Incorporate Roman Konkani in Official Language Act
|
|
Posted by : Arwin (UAE),2009-01-04

Konkani in the Roman Script must be incorporated into Goa's Official Language Act; on Par with Devanagiri.See following facts: (1) The Act in the current form is doing more damage to Konkani than Good over the past +20 years. Has the usage of Konkani increased in the local populace, government etc in the last 20 years? (2) The supporters of Current Act (i.e. Devanagiri Konkani only) had +20 years to make this current act work for promotion/growth of Konkani. Clearly they are still not success ..............

New Year Resolution

Posted by : edwin i b (Oman),2009-01-03

Every year we decide what must and mustn't do. The ills that we're facing now can be catastrophic if we don't act now. Hap-harzard constructions without proper planning, irregular distribution of water and electricity, make or break road constructions, dubious allotment of work in all sectors, and so on will go a long way into depleting the resources which our ministers proudly propagate that we are self sufficient.
Years on infact Goa has become a den of many nefarious ..............

Religious Politics

It is very unfortunate to see that even today, we allow politicians to use religion to ensure the survival of themselves & their corrupt governments. For example, before we Goan Catholics target others, we must accept the fact that that most of Goa’s Catholic MLA’s are extremely corrupt and are the biggest destructors of Goa & its Prized Identity i.e.
(1) Large Scale illegal Land conversions & Hill Cuttin ..............

This is related to the news article posted by Mr. Arwin from UAE. I do agree with Mr. Arwin what he has questined for.
It is true that most of the shacks at the beach side are occupied by non goans. Not only shacks, most of the peddlars/busines people are non goans who have put up small shops around the tourist places.
Now the question is :
1. Who is responsible for alloting the plots in that particular area?
2. Who is responsible for sanctioning the licen ..............
