Hi ,

great to read  accurate description of foreign spurred economy in Goa

to some extent it's happening in other states /towns (Bangalore )  - effect of 
globalization

while  no nation  can live in isolation any more-if only one could take 
the good part  of  foreigners invading  Goa &  reject the bad ..part .!
but life is not  a   simple demarkation of  balck and  white-the shades of 
grey....abound
can we not  ask some  public minded foreigners to head a team...and make 
one suburb "Little England" (name can be changed...as Indians are 
over-sensitive to nomenclature) adopt all good practices to make  one 
model area....to be followed by the rest
make Israelis spread Sabra culture in Goa...neat clean,well planned 
townships-lot of discipline & hard workfor all inmates (!!!!) 

 i agree  "let the foreigners come "
but also -let  Goans (police  & courts )   ensure there is no  spread of 
drugs, and flesh trade

for this  there should be no  interference from Politicians
there should be an organization like "Janagraha" ( Of ex-citibank's 
Ramnathan)  in B'lore
where citizens moniter what  govt authorities are  doing (Right to 
Information Act...with all it'slimiting  proivions )
if the Municipal corp is not  cleaning roads &  drains/cutting down trees 
for profit ...or not giving information abt their budget spending 
instead of losing courage-citizens have to pursue -even go to court-to get 
the correct info-and  THEN enforce  beneficial policies
and keep politicinas out
 basic  services are avialble abroad 'coz- their politicians do not 
interfere in "Roti-kapda -makan"
price of bread does not go up for yrs..... 

easier said than done...requires a Gandhi
