Re: [Goanet] Charlie Hebdo... again
Inappropriate comparisons Naguesh. Unclaimed bodies in the US in refrigerated trucks does not equal the indignity of bodies thrown furtively into a major river that supports the livelihood of many on its banks. The people being interviewed wanted to talk in anger or disappointment. They were not coerced or bribed. The Indian media covered it more than their Western counterparts did. There was a story to be told and everyone who wanted to, could tell it. I did not see only vulnerable Indians talking to the media in the midst of funeral pyres. I also saw affected family who were vulnerable too, in poorer sections of New York, Toronto and European cities sobbing outside hospitals where their kith and kin were gasping and dying with those scenes being shown on BBC, on CNN, on Al Jazeera, on AP and on Australian Broadcasting. If the Indian press wanted to cover the “sad scenes” in the US, Italy and France, no one would stop them. They probably don’t do it either because they don’t have the resources, the international influence or because press with world reach covers it adequately. If you saw people being treated on the streets in Italy and other ugly sights in rich countries, it was because those scenes were covered too. It was not western versus Indian. It was uncaring and negligent rulers like Trump, Modi, Bolsonaro et al that exacerbated it versus others who tried their best but were overwhelmed. Not fighting a fire is the same as wanting it to spread and kill. There’s no shame in western media exposing negligence in India. Would you rather they ignored it and those responsible escaped accountability. The media does not create the facts or the news, it only photographs it, records it and writes about it. Would you prefer they be selective about who or what they reported. Indians like Islamists seem to be touchy about what is said about them. One minute we want the light of a superpower, the next minute we want the darkness enveloping our deficiencies. Roland.

Re: [Goanet] Charlie Hebdo... again
Many supporters for Charlie Hebdo have highlighted a "Freedom of Speech" defense, when they were attacked after the original cartoon. And now as well. What happened with respect to the shortage of oxygen in India, is inexcusable. Wonder though whether this paper highlighted the plight of Italians, who were being treated in the streets of their cities or the unclaimed bodies in the US. This pandemic has put to test the health infrastructure of every country in the world, including the rich ones. I saw a video today of Oxygen laden tankers that have no takers in India and are being parked on the streets. In the same light there were 750 unclaimed bodies in refrigerated trucks in New York, even after year. The Western press made hay, triumphantly walking through the burning pyres in the crematoriums/crematoria, or on the banks of the Ganges. Or interviewing vulnerable Indians while the bodies of their loved ones were being cremated. It was nothing sort of desecration. I don't believe anyone in the West would let a Press guy broadcast from their graveyard/cemetery, while hundreds were being buried. It was a sickening sight. I don't believe that the Indian press got anywhere close to telecasting the sad scenes in the US or in Italy or France. It is perhaps easy to mock at India, and its people, with no fear of any retribution. https://people.com/health/bodies-of-750-covid-victims-are-still-sitting-in-refrigerated-trucks-in-nyc-a-year-later/ Naguesh Bhatcar From: Goanet on behalf of Frederick Noronha True.

[Goanet] Canada's Dark Secret- Survivor’s Stories
A well crafted documentary as Qatar’s Al Jazeera always creates. Survivors of that tragedy are even today shattered by their experiences. Many have committed suicides or are unable to work or function normally. Even those involved who are non-indigenous were and are traumatized. A similar situation happened amidst the poverty of Goa during the early and middle decades of the last century except that it was seemingly voluntary. Many families of even the upper class were poor and had a hard time feeding their 10 to 12 children. It became a norm to send one or two of them to the lifetime service of the church not only because there would be less mouths to feed but also because once they became priests they would support the rest of the family in whichever way they could. They would leave the house to go to the minor seminary when they would be no more than 10 years old. You can imagine the emotional hurt to these young people who had no say in the matter. They would endure the hardship of the institution and in the words of one of them, they would run to the gates when it was time for their mother to come once a month with washed clothes and some home food treats. This may be nothing compared to what the indigenous children had to go through when they were snatched from the Indian reserves which were their homes, but there it was for us to dwell upon. In today’s world in a somewhat different way, these events still play out when war shatters the lives of people in places like Libya, Iraq and Syria, Palestine and parts of Africa. Children may be famously said to be resilient but imagine you’re a five year old with your parents killed in a bombing or shelling night and you plucked out and taken to refugee camps to be one day transplanted into a strange home in an alien city. Blessings, prayers, reparations apologies, truth and reconciliation be damned. Let’s just learn to live well together. That’s all it takes. https://youtu.be/peLd_jtMdrc Roland. Toronto.

[Goanet] NEED OF THE HOUR IS FAMILY COURTS AND NOT PRE-MARRIAGE COUNSELING
The Goa Government woke up suddenly to try and arrest the spiraling number of failing marriages by seeking to introduce mandatory pre-marriage counseling, an idea that has now been rightly binned. The ground reality is that Goa has sadly caught up with the national and global tendency on this malaise of divorces. Today Courts across the State are inundated with matrimonial cases possibly overtaking the number of property disputes. In earlier years divorce cases may have been restricted to urban areas and the elite in society. But today, it is widespread from the wilderness of Sanguem to the villages of Sattari, with cases erupting all over and in every stratum of the community. We are witnessing that even well knitted arranged marriages and ripened love marriages are also hitting the rocks. Divorce cases can end up being extremely acrimonious and very stressful while they could also like all other litigations drag on for years. So instead of having toyed with that skewed idea of pre- marriage counseling which would have been an exercise in futility, the government would be well advised to instead set up designated Family Courts where marriage disputes can in a congenial atmosphere be speedily brought to a happy ending by either resolving the dispute or winding up the marriage itself. They say marriages are made in Heaven, so it is only proper that if there is to be an end to the marriage that it be as dignified and as fair as possible. The Government should do some soul searching to see whether their policies directly or indirectly contribute to the pressures on human well-being and harmonious survival because of which people find it challenging to stick to their marriage vows of better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness or in health. The current pandemic should serve as a real eye opener. Relationships are a lot like Algebra. You look at your X and wonder Y! The day may not be far when in Goa like in the West there may be a celebration Party hosted to mark the occasion of Divorce and shops selling cards ‘Congratulations on your Divorce’ may hit the racks. Goldsmiths may also cash in with a ring for the right hand as divorcing couples utter the immortal words ‘With this ring I thee divorce’? Adv.

[Goanet] Medically Assisted In Dying - A Courageous Story
In the Catholic view, MAID would be a narrative of cowardice; not facing up to the suffering and sacrifice that death sometimes entails. But in another world view, dying, when you have control over it, should be an act of dignity, a culmination of a life lived well and often an act of love and selflessness in making those who care for you, drag out their own suffering at your distress, a little less than it would. Whichever way you look at it, this act of a terminally ill couple should be able to strike a cord and inspire you to live in courage, even if you are in a non-death related dire situation. If you don’t agree, take the time to look at a bird or animal dying, maybe your own household pet. See the calm and fortitude in which it faces the end - not with tears and yelping but with a quiet dignity. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/prince-edward-island/pei-maid-assisted-dying-1.6050270 Roland.

Re: [Goanet] [Goanet-News] Goa initiative plans an online learning cafe, starting in the pandemic
Wonderful idea - not a day too soon.With prayers and good wishes for success Gilbert D'souzagpdstjos...@aol.com -Original Message- From: Goanet Reader To: Goa's premiere mailing list, estb. 1994! Sent: Thu, Jun 3, 2021 2:13 am Subject: [Goanet-News] Goa initiative plans an online learning cafe, starting in the pandemic PANJIM, June 3: As the pandemic hits education hard, a seed has been planted to promote an online, informal centre for career, life-long learning and hobby courses in Goa. Called the Collaborative Learning Cafe, this is an initiative of friends of Jesuits of the Goa Province and is being launched this weekend, on Saturday, June 5, at 6.30. pm. Former Madhya Pradesh Chief Secretary Anthony (Tino) de Sa, retired from the IAS, will deliver the inaugural speech titled _A Career in the IAS: Prospects and Challenges_. This is meant to also guide and inspire youth who might be thinking of a career in the Civil Services. Dr Rita Paes, Director of Nirmala Institute of Education, will chair the session. Initially being launched through the online mode, the plan is to also have real-world classes when needed, and the situation permits. The classes will be focused on imparting useful knowledge and skills rather than formal qualifications. It aims to encourage life-long learning, build job-oriented and careers skills, upgrade skills regardless of age barriers, promote short-term courses, and build role models for the youth of Goa. The route to attain this would be to tap the skills of veterans willing to share their knowledge, and encourage networking people with similar interests or hobbies, according to Frederick Noronha. The Provincial of the Goa Jesuits has lent full support to this initiative, stressing the role of education to grow "productive, caring, and sharing citizens" and also to foster peace and harmony among all people. Content generated will be available for free download. This goal was on the planning board of the Jesuits -- who have run community colleges in Chennai, Belgaum, and elsewhere. Oddly enough, the pandemic made the online mode more accessible, allowing for the plans to materialize. Offers for assistance have come in, said Merwin D'Souza SJ, who is the Goa Jesuit Province Development Director and has been overseeing the implementation of the project with Program Coordinator, Savio Dias. Plans for the immediate future include technical trainings, home science, a talk on astronomy, soft skills (personality development, communication, languages), teacher-focused programmes, theology and scripture. Anthony (Tino) de Sa will offer first-hand insights into the Civil Services, the responsibilities and mandate of the IAS, the career path and challenges of its members, and how one aspires to get into the service. Besides Mr de Sa's talk on careers in the IAS this weekend, language trainer Fr. Dr. Pratap Naik SJ (B.Sc, B.Ed, MA-Linguistics, MPhil-Ling, PhD-Ling) has a series of ten 90-minutes sessions between June 6 to 16 titled an "Introduction to Konknni" These talks will look at Konkani vowels and consonants; greetings and common expressions; days of the weeks, names of months and numbers; basic grammar, construction of simple sentences; and a modified Roman script orthography. The response to the plans has been very encouraging, with slots getting filled within hours of the first announcements. Plans are however afoot to enhance the number of slots available, while a live stream of the programme is also being arranged via the site collaborativelearningcafe.org the organisers announced.

[Goanet] CM PRAMOD SAWANT SHOULD LEAD BY EXAMPLE
We are in a pandemic, with a curfew in force and Section 144 in place while there is a total ban on public gatherings. Despite this the Goa Government this morning organized a public function at Campal on the occasion of World Environment day where Chief Minister Pramod Sawant was the Chief Guest and spoke about the need of planting and preserving trees. All this rhetoric when his government over the last two years has heartlessly devastated the environment very enormously by allowing hundreds of trees to be chopped while blatant hill cutting and filling of low lying fields is ongoing with political patronage. After all this ruthless degradation of our environment, what audacity does the Chief Minister have to speak about protecting the environment? It was very wrong on the part of the government to hold this needless function today in view of the current restrictions in place. And it is high time Chief Minister Pramod Sawant starts using that mask properly which he keeps on removing while lecturing others to strictly use it. Adv.

Hats off to Palanivel Thiagarajan for having the guts to put a Goa minister in his place - referring to him as an 'empty vessel. I think the people of Goa should thank this fearless politician who obviously has their interests at heart. Thanks VM for putting this story out. I hope Goa's C.M. takes note. Mervyn Maciel

[Goanet] The Great Collapse of the Indian Economy (Dhaka Tribune, 4/6/2021)
https://www.dhakatribune.com/opinion/op-ed/2021/06/04/op-ed-the-great-indian-collapse On May 31st, India’s National Statistical Office released its finding that the country’s GDP contracted by 7.3% over the past year, signifying the first reversal since 1979, and the greatest retrenchment since Independence in 1947. The shocking extent of damage was somewhat unexpected, but trends have been unremittingly negative since the badly bungled demonetization in 2016, closely followed by an equally mismanaged implementation of the intricate Goods and Services Tax (GST). That is how, in less than five years, India was hamstrung from the fastest-growing big economy in the world to the regional straggler that is well behind Bangladesh in both per-capita income and optimism. Beyond the numbers, an immense human tragedy spills over with incalculable suffering. Even before Covid-19’s devastating “second wave”, Pew Research Center warned “the middle class in India is estimated to have shrunk by 32 million in 2020 as a consequence of the downturn, compared with the number it may have reached absent the pandemic. This accounts for 60% of the global retreat in the number of people in the middle-income tier (defined here as people with incomes of $10.01-$20 a day).” Pew said “it was anticipated that 99 million people in India would belong in the global middle class in 2020. A year into the pandemic, this number is estimated to have been 66 million, cut by a third. Meanwhile, the number of poor in India is projected to have reached 134 million, more than double the 59 million expected prior to the recession.” That bleak picture is further darkened by Azim Premji University’s State of Working India 2021 report, estimating that, during the pandemic, 230 million Indians have fallen below the poverty line, working women suffered extraordinary setbacks (only 19% remained employed, and 47% lost their jobs permanently), and nearly half of the country’s salaried workers dropped into the informal sector of daily-wage labour or “self-employment.” There is no doubt the impact of all this falls vastly disproportionately on the hundreds of millions already in poverty. The Premji University report’s authors delineate how average incomes have fallen across the board, but any kind of loss becomes catastrophic when the base is already low, directly resulting in “severe reduction in welfare” such as food insecurity, indebtedness, and plummeting levels of education and health care. In his Indian Express column this week, Pratap Bhanu Mehta writes, “for the first time in a generation, young India is looking at a bleaker future than their parents did in terms of employment and income.” He points to the “remarkable fact that this fundamental triad of slower growth prospects, potentially shrinking middle class and rising poverty has been kept out of public political consciousness. The poor in India were always invisible. But the degree of economic and ideological obfuscation is such that even the normally influential middle class’s tale of economic uncertainty has become invisible.” Mehta concludes that “we are in completely uncharted new territory.” That - as Shreevatsa Nevatia illuminates with great pathos in his Letter from Kolkata in The Economist’s latest 1843 Magazine - includes “laying bare the great fiction of middle-class life in India” and perhaps to increased awareness that we are in this predicament together. Nevatia’s household help contracted Covid-19 at the same time as his parents, which is when, “I realised with shame [that] in all the years they had worked for us we had never offered Saraswati and Nageshwar any medical insurance [and] never planned what to do if either of them needed a modern, well-equipped hospital.” The helpers recuperated under his care, until “to both my relief and discomfort, the old order re-established itself.” Via email to me, Nevatia explained, “I see a difference between ‘penury’ and ‘poverty’, and I also see a difference between ‘poverty’ and ‘deprivation’. If all my sources of income were to dry up tomorrow, my middle-class support systems would ensure I wouldn’t be poor, despite my pennilessness. It’s a different story for Saraswati and Nageshwar.” He continued, “their salaries, though meagre in comparison to entitled and fortunate individuals like me, place them slightly above the poverty line. If something were to happen to them—an accident, say, or a terrible illness—they would not be able to work. Their labour is their only safety net, one that protects them from precariousness and the tyranny of privilege. Without it, there is very little sustenance.” Nevatia said, “The middle-class might be porous, yes, but that doesn’t mean that those within it don’t guard its doors fiercely. The pandemic might be forcing people out of this middle class, but history shows that it is exceptionally hard for one to get in, too. Yes, of course I feel anxious. If I were to be penniless tomorrow,

[Goanet] INSTEAD OF RIBANDAR THE AYUSH CENTER CAN BE AT MANIPAL HOSPITAL RUN BY GOA’S BABA RAMDEV
The Old Ribandar Hospital which is Asia’s first Medical school has a very glorious history. It was an excellent hospital and many of us were born there. The heritage structure was designed for it to house state of the art medical facilities which people from across Goa benefited. The Old Ribandar hospital was an allopathic one and must so remain. It is deplorable that our Ayurvedic Chief Minister Pramod Sawant at the instance of Union Ayush Minister Shripad Naik with oblique motives wants to have a needless Ayush Center there. That proposed Ayush Center can be instead hosted in the Manipal Hospital at Dona Paula which is better known as a BJP hospital. The Ayush work there can be entrusted to the head of the BJP's Medical cell Dr. Shekhar Salkar, who illegally masquerades as an Oncologist though not qualified as one while the Indian Medical Association strangely has taken no action against him while allowing the lives of gullible patients to be in peril. Needless to add Dr. Shekhar Salkar has also had an outstanding good financial bumper crop at the Goa Cricket Association and also at National Organization for Eradication of Tobacco (NOTE) which he heads. Those gross financial irregularities of he chewing public funds was even debated in the Goa Legislative Assembly. This known Cancer quack also doubles up as Goa's Baba Ramdev. In recent years, almost every patient I have known who has been to Manipal Hospital at Dona Paula has faced a hell of a nightmare. Most of those patients have landed up in the morgue, with their families lumbered with massive and extremely exorbitant bills. For the family of someone already going through the pain of illness, it is added agony to being financially ripped off with very inflated bills. This anguish faced by the family members is heart breaking to have to collect a dead body and paying up that huge bill landing them in a deep financial hole. Manipal hospital seems to be lacking any Code of ethics. A concern for the well-being of the patient is never there, while they merrily secure and pursue their commercial interests. The government ought to order an immediate inquiry into the dubious affairs at Manipal Hospital and the probe has to zero in around Dr. Shekhar Salkar who runs the commercial show there. He neither has a degree nor even a diploma in either Oncology or Oncosurgery. Three weeks ago a 85 year old pious gentleman and close friend from Ribandar miraculously escaped from being butchered by Dr Shekhar Salkar who was all set for another five lakh windfall to operate on my friend who had a growth on his intestine. Luckily my friend who timely smelt a rat and the doctor’s devious game plan, hastily sought discharge from the Manipal Hospital within hours of his admission there. Fortunately my friend sought immediate alternate medical advice and is keeping well after being successfully operated elsewhere. Dr Shekhar Salkar has been grossly misusing his position as Head of Goa BJP's Medical cell to illegally and unethically rake up huge financial benefits for Manipal hospital while also enriching his own pockets. He should not be allowed to inhumanely and immorally gamble with people's lives. There is abundant documentary evidence to the effect that the politically well-connected Dr Salkar has been unduly interfering and sabotaging the working of Government hospitals as well, only to benefit his Manipal Hospital. Let us hope that our Health Minister Vishwajit Rane orders a prompt thorough inquiry into the blatant misdeeds and wrongdoings at the Manipal hospital. This financial exploitation of patients cannot be allowed to go on unpunished. We also need to know as to how that building on free government land which was a Goa Cancer Society hospital landed in the soiled hands of the Manipal Hospital entrepreneurs. Instead of going to this Manipal Hospital, a patient may be well advised to die in peace somewhere else. At least the family's life savings would not be swallowed by this proven vulture of a hospital. The family will also be saved the financial ordeal and trauma they would have to go through after losing their loved one there, at Dona Paula. Adv.

[Goanet] Ribandar ....Quaint
Aires Rodrigues https://youtu.be/ttgJEBZHAXo dated Wed, 2 Jun 2021 10:03:54 +0530, to Goanet, simply headed RIBANDAR was a wonderful surprise . It is a picturesque settlement, combining both historical and modern buildings. .I know you have been to Quepem, my ancestral home .. Now I wish when I had the unexpected stay for 10 months, I had made it a point to stop at Ribandar. I fully understand your frustration and irritation when Crooks, use tax-payers money for their own selfish purposes .whether it is as MLA, Mayors of Panjim etc Secondly. I am wondering whether this message is a turning point, in the strategy to bring Change, democracy etc. For several years you have vented your anger and frustration against the Politicians and Bureaucrats it has not deterred them, on the contrary they have acted with impunityletters even with CAPITAL letters just embolden them ...This has been a decade when from the USA, Brazil, India, Burma, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, leaders have acted in a way that makes life miserable for citizens who believe in truth, participation etc. Here in Tanzania we nearly fell in that "mainstream" of dictatorship, petty, absolute or laughable. My colleague, an authority on witchcraft, tells me that some of them are actually suffer from megalomania There is a treasure at the end of the rainbow, we have to be patient .There is DIVINE INTERVENTION. Lets us pray for sanity, humanity and trust in ONE AND ONLY GOD Grandolfo In Makongo Juu Haven of Peace
