[Goanet] The Standards of Desperation.

[Goanet] ENGLISH IS ENGLISH! NOT SIMPLE OR COMPLEX
A social media friend from South Goa who is an undergraduate and who I have personally not yet met but only have corresponded with over the internet for about five years has sent me a message which has left me in a quandary. While thanking me for my writings which he says he regularly reads without fail, he has requested me to try and write in simple English. Thank God I was not educated at Oxford but went to just normal schools and colleges. In fact my formative years in the third and fourth standard of schooling was at a little Government run Primary school at Ribandar. I was admitted there so that my Aunt who was a teacher there could keep a watchful eye on my unending adventures. All through my academic years, I was so blessed with good and dedicated teachers who cared for and guided me all through my student days. On the extra curricular side, they encouraged me to participate in public speaking and essay contests. They were always a source of inspiration being friends rather than mere teachers. What ever knowledge I was able to assimilate and acquire to use in life, I owe it all to my dear teachers who were very caring and patient despite my always being a very challenging student. Now coming back to the request to pen in simple English, it may be too late at 60 to return to basic schooling. But, if the Benaulim MLA Churchill Alemao and even Chief Minister Pramod Sawant don’t have to struggle in understanding what I write, I hope my social media pal from South Goa will try and cope with the situation. May be we could bridge the gap once the new Zuari bridge is operational. In all that I candidly and fearlessly write, I attempt to ensure that nobody needs the assistance of a dictionary to read and understand the thoughts I express. I always aim for clarity, fact and sincerity. David Gerrold an American novelist echoed my thoughts when he said ‘The single most important lesson of effective communication is this: Focus on clarity. Concentrate on precision. Don’t worry always about constructing beautiful sentences. Beauty comes from meaning, not language. Accuracy is the most effective style of all”. Have at all times believed that the Pen is always mightier than the Sword. May it always be so.

[Goanet] Maka Podonc Nam
Nothing is more heart breaking than the personal grief of your family member. This video depicts a father and in a later scene the brother of a Covid afflicted 25 year old young man who was admitted to a Delhi hospital and the next thing the father knew, he was dead. Arvind Kejriwal Delhi Chief Minister is being blamed but the buck really stops with the Prime Minister who calls the shots including the right to call in the Army (which even Fauci told him to do) but has not done so for his own strange reason. Not to say there are no others that need to share the blame for this young man’s death. A lot of blame can be attributed to the apathy of the average citizen who allows those in power to get away with criminal acts of commission and omission. A good lesson for Goa where “amcam pondonc nam” (it doesn’t concern us) is almost a commandment. https://youtu.be/T5jp8alxUCk Roland. Toronto.
[Goanet] WILL IT BE BABUSH MONSERRATE’S SECOND EXIT FROM THE BJP?
With his political greed unending even during this current raging pandemic, Panaji MLA Babush Monserrate accompanied by his side-kick the Santa Cruz MLA Tony Fernandes met Chief minister Pramod Sawant on Saturday 1st May at his official bungalow at Althinho and demanded an immediate reshuffle of the State Cabinet. Monserrate reportedly told the Chief Minister that if no action was taken within a week that he would go public on the issue. This breaking news was published today on the front page of the Goa Edition of the Marathi daily ‘Lokmat’. Babush Monserrate has not lasted long in any political party and this is his second stint in the BJP which may now not put up any longer with his tantrums and may just sack him along with the St Cruz MLA. Babush Monserrate over the years in his quest for greener and lucrative political pastures has been hopping from Party to Party. He has seen them all. In 2005, the then Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar had the courage to strip Babush Monserrate of the Town and Country Planning portfolio due to the growing corruption in the department with regards to the Regional Plan. That in the bargain Manohar Parrikar had to lose his Chair is another issue. With the Assembly elections due early next year and which may be preponed, Goa may witness another round of political slugfest. The Goa BJP bus currently very overloaded with MLAs accumulated from various political parties is bound to crash under its own weight.
