Subject: [Goanet] GOA GOVERNMENT’S FLAWED PRIORITIES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Activist Aires Rodrigues criticizes the Goa Government below for paying
for young overseas Goans to visit Goa under the KNOW GOA PROGRAMME at Goan
taxpayer expense when there are other critical needs which need to be
addressed in Goa.

We all know that the Digambar Kamat government has, for long, misplaced
priorities. It has always been able to find a way to squander money. The
Chief Secretary and other officers are duty bound to audit the plans and
schemes the politicians want formulated. Every paisa from the State
exchequer needs to be well spent and duly accounted for. It is very
surprising that bureaucrats today do not by way of fiscal responsibility
raise any queries or objections on public money going down the drain. An
example at hand is the “Know Goa Programme”.
Before hosting guests to visit Goa, the Government should first care to
show Goa’s children what remains of Goa. They may very soon not be able to
see any of it with the speed at which our once beautiful state is being
ruined.
Very sadly within the mining dumps, concrete jungles and sewerage infested
wells, posterity may well have to track down their roots in what was once
Goa, the Paradise of the East.

COMMENTS:
The above is the case of :
1. Not knowing the basic principles of: 'ANTUN POVOUN PA'EM SODDOP' - [
'SPREADING THE LEGS AS ACCORDING TO THE MATTING']
2. Of glorifying oneself at the cost of others: 'MEZAI'LEM KELLEM KADUN
SAGUAD ZODOP' - [GIFTING THE BANANA FROM THE SERVING TABLE]
3. Of not bothering to know who is paying for what: 'KONACHEA PAI'CHEM KITEM
VETA' - [ WHO'S FATHER WHAT GOES]

PS: Our political leaders must be given a crash course in 'belt tightening
exercises' . The paunches of most are overflowing. And if I am any
observer, Aires himself needs to take heed of this before he finds out that
the belt is rendered too short. :-))
