[Goanet] Margret Frenz: Community, Memory, and Migration in a Globalizing World: The Goan Experience c.1890-1980
Rather interesting book, just out in the Goa market. At first glance: very detailed and insightful. Here's one quote to illustrate Frenz's writing (p.132): Goans migrated largely due to economic considerations, unlike many other South Asians. From their first migration to East Africa in the late nineteenth century up to the 1950s, they could best be described as 'voluntary' migrants. 'Greener pastures', that is, promising professional opportunities, initially lured them to British ships, and later, on to the East African coast. In the early period, the first port of call was Zanzibar which provided ample opportunities to set up business or find work in the Sultan's government. As the British colonial governments expanded throughout East Africa, new economic opportunities opened up and Zanzibar lost its pivotal position for Goans, though the community there remained very strong. Their economic success was reflected in remittances to their family who remained in Goa. But the economic successes were not accompanied by political power... Useful set of maps at the start of the book -- migration-oriented areas of Goa; movement from Goa to East Africa (Zanzibar, Tanganyika, Kenya, Uganda); Goan institutions at the Zanzibar Stone Town; Dar es Salaam Goan institutions; Nairobi Goan instituions; Kampala Goan instituions; the movement out of East Africa from the mid 20th century; post-colonial Goa.

[Goanet] KERIM -TIRACOL BRIDGE , AIVAO WATER SPORTS AND MALA PROJECT ARE UNDER THE SCANNER OF NGT?
Dear Bevinda ColacoEditor of Target Goa. Thanks for publishing your article and I fully support your Editorial or a report published in your paper in regards to illegal Tiracol Bridge across the estuary of Tiracol river at Pernem Taluka and that NGT is rightly taken up this issue and it should be stopped immediately. These organisations like GSIDC , GCZMA and Ministry of Environment and Forest are the party by give approvals which is against the interest of public and this was merely in the interest of great Lords who wants to start Golf courses and earn money. Who is the main culprit is the Member Secretary of GCZMA Srinet Kotwale responsible by giving clearances etc and this is not the first time he is doing that, but I have been shouting for particular project which is already come up at Aivao-Caranzalem by National Water Sports Authority and inspite of the complaint made by Prof (Dr) Joe D'Sousa that this is coming in violation of CRZ and it is low lying area without clearances of EIA and others. This part of the project was hurriedly approved and inaugurated by Chief Minister recently. This project was projected in 2005 and could not get it through for various reasons and now all of a sudden the GSIDC in connection with GCZMA, TCP and others took it up and construction is going on in full swing. Who should be responsible for it for such a blunder which I heard from one the Member of GCZMA saying that it comes within 200 metres water tide line and it is within the set limits of approval. Who knows which figure is right and earlier I was told that it was 100 metres and who has inspected it in detail. I understand that that figure was taken up from a Google mapping which is still under dispute by the Court. This distance should have been measured in tapes and not by Google mapping which i am sure there is some interest for some party to start the water sports and crowd the main D.Paula -Miramar roads by the traffic and also the residents of Aivao village who used to play in this ground are been deprived of those activities as well as some field cultivation for those poor people living there. An another project was also informed to GCZMA authorities about the oncoming heavy construction at Portais area ( Mala) which is also in low lying areas ( where I lived in Portais for more than 40 years) and this is being approved by TCP and GCZMA by giving their consent . The St. Ines creek is an another blunder which will never be solved by any Government in power. Recently this cleaning operation at this creek was inaugurated by a MLA who was deputed by CM, and anybody can see that nothing is followed it up and it looks deserted with foul smell. Herald newspaper building and Vivanta Hotel is just at the vicinity of this creek where it was inaugurated are shown no interest and they are just mum. Considering all these illegal approvals I feel that the GCZMA Member Secretary Mr. Srinet is incompetent to hold this post and either he should be replaced or GCZMA to be dissolved. Nowadays the activists and the public in Goa has no voice to raise for any illegalities going on in Goa and even the Press reports do have any say. Stephen Dias, D.Paula National Green Tribunal issues notices of stay on construction of Tiracol Bridge 20, Oct 2014 *PRESS RELEASE | * The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has issued notice to the Goa State Infrastructure Development Corporation, GCZMA and the Ministry of Environment and Forests on the construction of the Tiracol Bridge. The NGT was considering an appeal filed by the Goa Foundation on the issue. The notice was issued on 10 October, 2014 and the application has now been posted for hearing on interim relief including stay of the construction on 31.10.2014. The Foundation sought to challenge the CRZ clearance dated 22.10.2013 granted by the GCZMA for construction of a major bridge project across the Tiracol estuary costing Rs.77 crores as it was in violation of the CRZ Notification 1991/2011 issued under the provisions of the Environment Protection Act, 1986 and the approved Goa Coastal Zone Management Plan dated 27.9.1996. Permission as required from the Ministry of Environment & Forests has not been obtained. The GSIDC has nonetheless commenced construction of the bridge. Permission has been granted by the GCZMA despite the characterization of the area as CRZ I and in violation of the provisions and procedures laid down in the CRZ notification. The bridge access on southern side is being constructed in the beach zone, immediately on the HTL of Querim beach which is demarcated as CRZ I as per the approved Coastal Zone Management Plan and CRZ notification. The bridge is being constructed without prescribed study of environmental impact and that too in the NDZ of Querim and across the estuary of Tiracol river which is ecosensitive area and in the absence of an approved CZMP.

Subject: 24 hours to save the Western Ghats
Dear friends across India,
In 24 hours, we have an amazing chance to save India’s beautiful Western Ghats
from destruction. Constructors and miners are eyeing these ancient hills and
forests and if we stand by, our government will let them destroy our
environment even further. So let’s act now.
Running through six states, the Ghats are home to Asian elephants, tigers,
sloth bears and many more species that are found nowhere else in the world. But
our political leaders are treating these vast UNESCO World Heritage sites like
a commercial goldmine scrapping a government report calling for its protection.
That's why international pressure from UNESCO is crucial and it has worked
before! India quickly acted to restore a heritage railway in Darjeeling after a
UNESCO inspection. Lets get UNESCO to step in again to protect this incredible
natural environment.
We are meeting with Kishore Rao, the head of UNESCO tomorrow in Paris! If we
all sign now, we can show him that thousands of Indians like us want to see the
Western Ghats protected. Sign now and share this widely:
https://secure.avaaz.org/en/48_hours_to_save_the_western_ghats/?bQeufdb&v=47723
The Western Ghats mountain chain is home to at least 325 globally threatened
species of flora and fauna and also sustains the livelihoods of millions of
Indians. But relentless large scale commercial activity is causing the
ecological destruction that is also claiming human lives. In recent months a
whole village near Pune was flattened because of landslides which killed 130
people.
The new government says it is concerned about climate change, but it is yet to
show this in practice. It has allowed irrigation projects without the requisite
clearances, eroded democracy by taking away power from the National Board of
Wildlife and from tribal councils to oppose big corporations, and acted to
allow even more industry in critically polluted areas, among other measures.
These Ghats are considered one of the world's eight "hottest hotspots" of
biodiversity. The UN just agreed to double financial aid to foster biodiversity
so now, let’s tell it to act for the Western Ghats. International pressure is
crucial to saving these beautiful hills and in 24 hours we can send our message
straight to the UNESCO head. Sign now!
https://secure.avaaz.org/en/48_hours_to_save_the_western_ghats/?bQeufdb&v=47723
The global Avaaz community recently participated in the biggest climate march
of all time. We are mobilising to protect our planet and its resources and
governments around the world are starting to listen. By saving the Western
Ghats, not only are we securing nature and wildlife, but also the lives and
livelihoods of millions of our fellow citizens. Let’s act today, before it’s
too late.
In hope,
Alaphia, Shreya, and the rest of the Avaaz team

[Goanet] HAPPY DIWALI
Diwali is a festival of lights and spiritually celebrates victory of light over darkness,good over evil, knowledge over ignorance,encouraging hope over despair! But all this is lost in the commercialization to materialistic greed, expensive gifts and indulging in harmful eating and drinking with the bursting of crackers, burning of Narkasurs and pollution that do not remove the darkness of poverty,hunger, violence,crime and intolerance from our nation. CNN-IBN held a program in a prominent Mall, interviewing people lavishly spending which forced them to think of some sacrifice and to share with their less fortunate brethren. India badly needs change in mindset to go with Prime Minister's development and cleanliness mantra when he says: "Surajya is not possible until each and every citizen will be an equal and integral part of the decision making process. The times of formulating policies from air-conditioned Government chambers are over. Policies must be made among the people, empowering every citizen to express him or herself on a wide range of issues. This would be a paradigm shift towards Surajya". Let the light of Diwali enlighten us all to be one with nature in one big community (Common Unity).

[Goanet] SAME OLD POLITICAL ROT
The BJP tries to project itself as the party with a difference but it is abundantly clear that it is no different to the rest of the rot. After having just a few days ago branded the NCP as the “Naturally Corrupt Party” it has now kept the option open of forming the government in Maharashtra with the support of the very same NCP. Politics today is no longer a mission, not even an honest profession. It has been abridged to a scoundrel’s last resort. It has become a ruthless business, with morals and ethics twisted, thrown to the winds, and long buried deep in the slush of ignorance and thuggery. Even those in the world’s oldest profession do it better.
