To be a force in history (past or present), one needs a community. Even a solitary achiever or strong leader cannot acheive much and for long without the backing from "number" of like minded people. The problem with Goans is that we have a difficult time with being a LIKE MINDED PEOPLE. Goans have been described by outside researchers who have written their work as "a people full of controversies and divisions."
We see now a simple issue about "a full bloodied Goan" being questioned by an English professor. I think cyber Goa in reality contributing and AGGRAVATING the divisive nature of Goans. Thus, DIVISION is not only among Goan politicians seeking power and wealth, but even among ordinary Goans like us, in Goan cyber space. We pretend to argue about our probelms with high minded words but we are actually just playing one group of Goans against another with no intention of solving the issue.

Perhaps it is the tendency of Goans to "merge" into any society they come into and become part of them rather than living as separate entities? Research required by social anthropologists ...
