Sangath, www.sangath.com, is looking to build a centre for services, training and research and seeks to buy approx 1500 to 2000 sq mtrs land betweeen Mapusa and Bambolim and surrounding rural areas. Please contact: contac...@sangath.com or yvo...@sangath.com or ph+91-9881499458 http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2009-July/180028.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ George Pinto 1: If the transaction is legal, no govt. or agency should intimidate legal parties. No govt. or agency should retrospectively change the law, or reverse a LEGAL transaction. I have been saying as much ALL ALONG.. jc 1: Grateful if GEORGE would please direct me (at least) to his posts in which he has 'been saying as much all along'. -- George Pinto 2: Yet Eddie ...... writes this smear and Jose repeats it. JC 2: Grateful IF George would please identify the smear. -- George Pinto 3: Yet Eddie ..... his amazing claim that 100% of British national real estate transactions are legal with the caveat. JC 3: I do understand that some of us may have been 'liberated' by the Goviean logic of recent times, BUT Is George Pinto suggesting that it is AMAZING to state that a transaction is legal unless proved otherwise? Really! ? That is indeed amazing. -- George Pinto then takes a swipe at Eddie ...which I believe he is entitled to. A man is allowed to use all the monkey wrenches at his disposal in order to extricate himself from the the Mugabesque corner. George writes drawing attn to Eddie's 'Goa is a toilet' postings or repostings: George Pinto 4: May be the shortfall in tourism has to do with people posting "Goa is a toilet" some months back. Gee, I wonder who posted that "Goa is a toilet"? JC 4: No relationship to the perceived official illegality in the land transaction situation being discussed here ...BUT will say this: Beautiful Brochures attract a first, second ....100th set of people. What they actually find there (toilet, corrupt cops, or coniving lawyers etc) will determine IF they will return. Word of mouth and blogs take care of that. (Please note the 'hot story' presently doing rounds about the scam at Thailand's new airport.) BTW: Especially when finances are tough, 'toilets' are not great spots to spend vacations unless one eats the pani puri from those 'ghati' road-side stalls. -- In another unrelated monkey wrench attack on Eddie by George Pinto, George Pinto 5: I wonder if Eddie asked himself about the fair and equitable thing to do as Jose writes above, when he published a hit piece by a so-called journalist on a Toronto couple a year ago. JC 5: First of all, let's describe the piece correctly. It was a "hit-and run" piece. Now ....publishing that per se, cannot be classified as being 'unfair or inequitable' UNLESS Eddie failed to post any direct response to that article from the 'Toronto couple'. BTW: I am glad that George brought this up even by way of monkey 'wrenchedness'. Has the Goan community, even on this list, actually analysed WHO or WHAT was behind that horrible attack - not only on the Toronto couple, BUT also on the couple's young daughter? Has George Pinto asked any questions on the matter? Has he followed it up? IF NOT, why is he bring it up in the midst of this topic? Is he trying to ambush Eddie? If so, it appears that Fixed Nooj and the Goveians have had more effect on Goans than I hitherto believed they would. jc Até amanha
