Sure, agreed! I'd like to see African, Latino, East European and Far Eastern perspectives on Goa too. Never happens. Why? Are our minds colonised, and are we willing to go along with dominant global perspectives on these issues?
Now that the US is sinking into being a Third World country, will they come to Asia, Africa and Latin America for perspectives on how to cope with "underdevelopment", restructuring by the World Banks, etc? What about the perspectives of the 5 out of 6 billion people on the planet who cannot afford to be tourists outside their own countries?
