Frederick, Why this sudden interest in hotels owned by politicians? During 2006-2009 I was posting photographs of new construction projects (most of them illegal) from all over Goa virtually every day. At that time you and your ilk had nothing but snark for me. You claimed that my alarm over the construction frenzy was "exaggeration" and insinuated that it was actuated by something nefarious. Your main interest then was certainly not the concretization of Goa but instead questioning of the motives of those like me who were opposing it. Now that the horse has bolted the stable, Frederick is concerned about some hotels being owned by politicians from other states. Earth to Frederick: It's over, fella. r
