Press release

GOENCHO ULO - Anink ek panvl, anink ek divli pettli !
Panaji, Nov 25: A new Konkani tabloid "Goencho Ulo" in Roman Script launched on Thursday.
The first editorial of the newly-launched Konkani tabloid in Roman script written by Joel D'Souza.
The ten-page tabloid [6 colour pages + 2 B/W pages] is issued free to the konkani reading public all over Goa. Currently it is planned as a fortnightly. The promoters hope to raise funds to keep it that way. It will be self-financing or cease to exist. The onus is on all who love the language and want the script to generate advertisement revenue. The initial push came from Rs.30,000/- sent by Ben Antao.
"Anink ek panvl, anink ek divli pettli." meaning "One more step, one more lamp is lit." is the title of the front page edit.
