George & Floriano,
Floriano is right to be upset. Here is an honest person who could not
get elected. We know that a corrupt society supports/elects corrupt
leaders. To change things in Goa assembly, we need to have a minimum of
21 honest leaders with a vision. Is this possible when we have a
corrupt society? One or Two honest leaders or even an honest CM will
not be able to survive too long in power. And what role should the
church play in a corrupt society?
But lets keep hope alive!!!! Otherwise there is no point living.
When I was in Goa last month, I heard from reliable sources that the
muslim population is rising drastically in Goa, followed by a moderate
increase in Hindu population and a comparitevely small increase in
christian population. The increase in muslim and hindu population is
mostly due to the new comers. I will not be suprised to see very soon
the Muslim population in Goa larger than the Christian population. When
(not if) that happens, will Goa still be a peacefull place to live or
will it be like any other heavily populated muslim cities in India? The
good thing in this may be the people in Goa will wake up early after
hearing a wake up call from the Iman. Will the foreign tourist still
consider Goa a safe destination?
Regards,
Carlos
