   Great thoughts , BUT what are we doing besides
...writing and suggesting - not many of us want to get
involved , we want every one else to do something !

 We need to ask ourselves * WHAT CAN I DO ? *
rather asking others what they have done for Goa ?

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.

 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.

have had were crooks ruling Goa, and Goans have
accepted it as a way of life.

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,

progress.  Goa is nowhere where it was before liberation, and I just cannot

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.
