Jose, I have never met Dr. Wilfred de Souza (current Tourism Minister). About a month ago the GOAN OBSERVER named him "Rat of the Year". In 2003 it named Mathany Saldanha, in 2004, Rane (if I remember correctly). The article described two phases of Dr. Wilfred de Souza - one honest, decent, non-corrupt. The other phase is different and post acquisition of a son-in-law: corrupt, hence "Rat of the Year" (one has to read the entire article as I may be over-simplifying). Is it your view that politics in Goa corrupts all, even professionals? Or is there another reason professionals should not be in politics? Regards, George
