Sincerely, Arwin Mesquita, Address:xxxx Subject: Corrupt Goa Government on Defensive It is common knowledge of the Disgustingly High Level of Corruption in the Goa Government; which is the main reason today, for the gradual destruction of Goa & Its Identity. The outburst of this corrupt government against writers Samir Kelekar & Peter Fernandes, is un-warranted and who today in his/her right mind can vouch for the integrity of the Goa Government. Many ageing MLA's after years of looting the public in ease, are now feeling the heat and want to send a strong message of intimidation to the Goan Public. Instead of demanding an apology from Samir & Peter, it is the ageing corrupt MLA'S in the government who should apologise to Goans for all their misdeeds over the last so many years. The People of Goa should will not be cowed down by these threats of a corrupt government!!
