Hi manuel,
-These vermin do not see the need to give up as they have enough of foul matter
in Goa to feed upon.
- Print and TV media and opinion in Goa are the sole property of miners,
builders and politicians.
-Goans tolerate a malyalee, Bihari, Manglorean, Maharashtrian as editor to
shape their vision. We are pleased to be entertained by their abuses against
goan crabs and treat their 'Stray Thoughts' as second to the Holy scriptures.
-We have the Pandits, Ramanis, Prasads, Vermas and other migrants telling and
even leading goans into what they need to do for their state.
-Then we have the foreign patron goans who will get carried away with any crap
sold to them about 'Saving Goa' and will not question but part with their
financial support. Over and above, even if warned, they will turn back and
rebuke you for being negative.
- More money, no worry. The lawyers are there. Do not waste time in agitating
on the streets, just file a PIL at the drop of a hat and take pride of going
endlessly to court and enjoying the media publicity. The issue is forgotten 2
years later and in all probability the petition will also fail. But by that
time the mobs attention is diverted to something more mesmerising. Isn't Aldeia
issue rotting in court. Whose money?
- Build an NGO brand 'Save Goa' and people will be running after you aimlessly.
That is what one Bhatikar is now supposedly employed to do in a run up to the
polls. You will be state funded to divide and rule.
-Talk about a well defined vision and code of conduct for members for a long
term movement and you will not land up with anyone behind you. Free lancing in
activism without accountability is the mantra in Goa today. We have MSWs, not
Male Sex Workers by the way.
-Organise a public rally at Panjim or Margao and also provide for the bus
transport and refreshments if you want a crowd of goans to swear about 'Saving
Goa'.
- Demand accountability from activist leaders and see the slander and abuse
against you by the media and the public. You will be turned 'saffron'.
- Goans cannot yet decide on 'Who is a Goan' and what more can be expected of
them to 'Save Goa'. Which Goa?
- where communal elements go as secular and vice versa. Communal elements can
get a State funeral. They will now bring in Supa from karwar into Goa but leave
out Haliyal as it is .....
- For 49 years goans have been taken for a joy ride but will never learn their
lesson.
- At the end of the day if there is 'pikasao' you can hit the nearest taverna
which number more than restaurants. It is there that revolutions get started by
night only to wound up by morning.
Goa cannot hope for a revolution in such a dilapidated social and mental
condition.
regards,
Soter
