Well said amigo Bernado!

As a matter of fact Mao's Road to Socialism was adopted by late Pandit
Jawaharlal Nehru (1961 Goa's so called "liberation") and then inherited by
his daughter late Indira Gandhi ( both Congress; because of whom we Goans
have lost our paddy fields (land to the tiller) and properties taken over by
the mundkars.

Some of the properties have been lying in the courts for as many as three
decades.

I have known many Goans who have come out of Goa with empty hands. 

We Goans should learn to be slow in criticising the new government and
generous in praising.  The budget has shown the intentions of the
government.  Those who criticise should have stood for election and not 
act like a whinging pomes. 

Amche Geom amkam Koresh zai!

In the late seventies my friends from Don Bosco would talk a lot about a
Prof who had revolutionary ideas to help the people of Goa. His classes I
believe were always filled with these stories. Later Matani came out to
fight for various causes. The main one was the opposition to mechanical
fishing vis a vis traditional fishing. Then there was the agitation against
the Meta Strips etc. In Cuba and in the early 50's an Argentnian Doctor by
the name of Ernesto Che Guevara fought side by side with the Cuban
Revolution. Che used the AK, while Matani used ahimsa and satyagraha methods
to achieve their goals. Both men also made mistakes Che tried to suppress
the Catholic church while Matani tried to shoot from the shoulder of the BJP
( a fascist group).

There is a third chap in the scene. Mao said revolution starts with the
barrel of a gun. These are not pipedreams.
