Dear Rose Fernandes
Thanks for your explanation on the subject which I received from Mr. Melvyn
Fernandes.
I also thank Melvyn for allowing Rose to use your e-mail ID to highlight me
on the topic.
With your permission, let me tell you my views on another topic. I've
practically experienced visiting Cochin, Kerala & I love to be in Cochin
only to enjoy eating fresh fish caught along sea cost with Chinese net!
Goans, these days, rather past 4 -5 years, eat FISH coming from Kerela, TN,
and so on, and that too out of taste!!!!
Anyway, I hope the views expressed by Rose on the topic materialize not only
in Kerala but everywhere round the globe.
Best regards,
U. G. Barad

Dear U G Barad
The issue of liquor has been and is continuing to be a very "debated" topic
in the United Kingdom mainly due to the abuse of cheap liquor by our young
generation (and sometimes the old generation too) who drink till they can no
longer stand causing a real challenge for the police and medical staff at
the Accident & Emergency Services in hospitals here particularly stretching
them to the limit on Friday and Saturday nights. The United Kingdom
government is now looking to tackle this issue very seriously, the first
step being the introduction of a much higher unit cost for liquor and more
stringent steps may soon follow.
Holiday resorts around Europe, especially Spain, also experience summer
periods of this type of drunken behaviour mostly by the younger generation.
The stance the Church in Kerala has taken on liquor will soon be something
that other countries may have to look into to tackle the problems that over
indulgence and abuse of liquor are causing.
