People in Goa always consider west as a clean place, no corruption, better 
government, lots of facilities, good educational system, etc etc. A friend of 
mine settled in London. They migrated tohi London from Africa. They always 
considered UK those days as haven for goans and always looked Goa as a place 
full of cowdung, cattle on streets and poor educational system. One day it so 
happened after my friend's daughter attaining age 14 left his house to join her 
boy friend and while she went to live with him my friend could not do anythng 
but come to Goa with the rest ofthe crowd. He then started a slogan Bharat 
hamara dhes, bharat mahan hai. " Even in our catholic religion we have foreign 
saints sometimes we do not even know ifthey ever existed. every one loves 
foreign people. As for me I say " Zo dhar gaiea to he mar gayea . the one who 
feared he died . from film sholay. Goans from africa boasted about africa and 
humilated us. many times the portuguese speaking people would ignore and start 
speaking portugues
