South Asian Film Festival in Goa from Fri (June 27) to Mon (June 30) At Kala Academy, and ESG, Panaji, Goa http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2008-June/076384.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Goanet - A large parcel of land on the Dona Paula plateau has been fenced off for imminent construction. Nearby, other monstrosities are taking shape. I hear this particular project was stopped by a citizen group (but I am not sure). Today, there appeared a signboard outside the fence. http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/dp-1.jpg http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/dp-2.jpg http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/dp-3.jpg Just what is going on (everywhere!) in Goa? I thought the GBA had saved Goa, if the crowing from some monkeys here (pardon the mixed metaphor) is to be believed. Wasn't the GBA convener up for an award for having whipped Goa back into verdant health? So what happened? Is this a great saffron plot that has now infected our eyes making us see things that aren't really there? Warm regards, r
