Re: [Goanet]Events of '61...
Mr. Correia, Democracy is not a failure in Goa? Than you say it is the fault of the masses. These are contradictory statements. As for the progress with which model are you comparing? Probably with other countries in bharat? What about the rule of law today in Goa? How progressive is it? Kindly note Goa continues to be occupied by theives and plunderers since 61. I am not complaining but this is the truth. B. Colaco Its over FORTY YEARS since liberation, and Goa has made huge strides in progress. Goa is nowhere where it was before liberation, and I just cannot comprehend your thoughts. In a democracy, the government is one chosen by the people for the people, so where does your friend Nehru come in the picture? Democracy is not a failure in Goa, in fact, it is one of the great success stories ever. Sadly it is the fault of the Goan masses when they willingly choose to elect the representatives they have. ___ To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Yahoo!

A big mistake on the part of Nehru, Hence all we have had were crooks ruling Goa, and Goans have accepted it as a way of life. Tumi chorat, amkam susegad dovrat. = Precisely, crooks have been ruling Goa because the act of Democracy is a failure. Should partial democracy be installed in Goa? Our 'think tanks' discuss issues on this forum which have no relevance to Goa. _ Dear Bernardo, Its over FORTY YEARS since liberation, and Goa has made huge strides in progress. Goa is nowhere where it was before liberation, and I just cannot comprehend your thoughts.

Democracy is not a failure in Goa, in fact, it is one of the great success stories ever. Sadly it is the fault of the Goan masses when they willingly choose to elect the representatives they have. I think its time for all Goans to forget their dreams of Portuguese rule, and go on forward from there. Like I said earlier, Goa has progressed tremendously, and if one compare and goes into details I can say that the progress that Goa achieved in the last 40 years is definitely more than what happenned in the 100 years before liberation. Let us see the positives and avoid being pessimistic. See the improvement in educational facilities, productive industry, among so many other areas where there has been an advancement. And instead of always complaining, let us do something to encourage our fellow Goans to do something better. regards salus
