Dear Misquita, Firstly congrulation on being appointed the new NRI Commissioner . We Goans in the Middle East would like to see something differnt from your end. A brief i would like to mention I had met Mr. Eduardo Falerio 4 years back and had raised a grievance about all the Goans languishing in the Jail in UAE and metioned to him that we need to get them out in discussion with the Indian Enbassy. The Reply i got for this was if they have done something wrong then let them be in the Jail. But he never asked the crime that was committed. Crimes like drunk driving, Bankruptcy, petty fights fist of anger at that movement. I would request you that we look into this cases as they are fathers to childern, Sons to the mothers who came to see that the family gets decent food and shelter but faith has put them in Jail. I would request you to kindly look in to this and i would personally like to help in this matter. Reagdrs JO
