Ref below comment" The aim was to get together to show our culture to our neighbours"
It is a good that we have something to show TODAY; In a FEW years with the current onslaught on Goa's Land & Identity, Culture by Corrupt Politicians, Vested Interest and worse, the lack of interest by Goans to protect the same; there will not be anything GOAN to show to others!! It is high time we wake up to realities and act; and not be in self-denial.
