I am sure Ignatius, Agnelo, Arwin etc have their reasons for being so bitter against the Ministers from Goa. They have a right to speak their mind...However, this forum is a constructive forum and one is free to air their views but one should not lower themselves to such an extent that they have to abuse or call people names. After all, we are not in Goa and have come to greener pastures of our own choice, as each of us has our own reasons. But, by calling people names and defaming them in public can call for a lot of unnecessary hassles. We must see the bottom line....These Ministers are in their posts as They have been elected by the people in one of the worlds largest democracy's. They have been elected time and again...by whom? The people of Goa...the people who actually physically live there. Most of us are abroad and only use our keyboards to condemn or praise. By condemning the Ministers we are in fact condemning our fellow Goan Brothers and sisters (the electorate) as they are the ones who have elected the Ministers...They are the majority...if we want to make a difference to our Goa, then we should go to Goa and do something about it instead of sitting abroad and having a go at our keyboards. One can go and stand for elections and IF elected can make a difference to Goa AND Goans. I am sure the same people that elect the current Ministers now and again will elect some new faces provided the new faces are capable of delivering the goods and are capable of taking all the flak!
I have read in recent posts that Babush is going to Swindon, Churchill has come to Dubai and gatecrashed a function, Joaquim Alemao has done this and so and so Minister has done that.... Making accusations is simple and one cannot be stopped, but making it on a public forum just goes to show the mentality of our OWN People...the Ministers are elected by US and we OURSELVES condemn them ! indirectly we are condemning ourselves ! If one thinks or has any evidence of any wrongdoings by any individual why not confront the concerned individual or Minister or even the event organizers directly instead of making a noise on a public forum knowing that it is not going to obtain any positive result (except to put the author in the limelight)? Babush is going to Swindon...dont think its a good idea ? Contact the Swindon Goans and reason out with them giving them valid reasons..they MAY listen to you and act accordingly....Churchill gatecrashing an event? Does anyone know this for a fact? if you have evidence, contact the organizers (Global Goans, I think) and verify the point..who knows maybe they invited him? if not who entertained him at the event? How did he gain entry without a ticket or invite? I don't really know..... We can go on and on, so to cut it short, lets wash our dirty linen at home and not in Public....if we think our Ministers are tainted...lets go to Goa and make a difference...at least our keyboards will have some rest. Written without malice to any individual...written only in the better interests of Goa and especially our Goan Community.
