Dear Carmen,
I must revisit our dear little meet at TATO's in Panjim to remind you of
what I had said as regards SAVING GOA.
The flood-gates of GOAN goodness, kindness, golden hearts with donating
streaks can open only if all the four corners of the square one wants to
contain that load must be secure, bonafide ( at least in the minds of the
donors) so that they do not feel betrayed once the flood-gates are opened
and every thing they wanted Goa to have has been emptied out. GOANS have
been taken for jolly good rides before, and they will be taken for more if
they are not careful. And they do know that.
The prophets of DOOM do keep on cropping up, but fail to apply themselves to
the single most agenda to start sweeping the mess at the right place.
Opening too many fronts (like the Germans did in the 2nd. World War will
only meet with doom in the end and achieve nothing.
Perhaps these good hearted donors are careful in the case of your 'appeals'
as not all the chords may have been struck to generate a mellow and pleasing
sound.
:-))

Thank you Bernice for your support !
Unfortunately it seems that our goans need constant reminders and
encouragement to donate to this cause, and I am running out of hope...the
struggle in Goa continues and is getting tough ! Government of Goa is
totally in the pockets of the miners, several ministers are miners
themselves and we have a huge battle to fight to save what ever is left
of Goa!

It is a great move to have an account wherein all those who want to
contribute towards the betterment of Goa can deposit their bit. Even if
the amounts are small, but everybody is serious about the cause, it can
certainly make a big difference.
I support your idea Carmen and I'm sure a lot of Goans all over the world
will do likewise.
