[Goanet] Notice of Meeting of GWS

2008-08-31 Thread Santos Carmo



I wish the goanet moderators and specially Bosco D'Mello, Herman Carneiro, Fred 
Noronha, and others for your tremendous hard work to have the mailing list 
going.  Keep up the good work and may the Almighty shower his choicest 
blessings on all associated with goanet.   I as the the Chairman of Goan 
Cultural Centre-Kuwait – a registered organization with the Embassy of 
India-Kuwait  and  the recipient of the Goa NRI Award, take this opportunity to 
wish goanet a long innings.
Now, I draw your attention to a  posting done by W.C. Coelho about a meeting of 
GWS and in the Notice  my name figures  which is done with malicious interest.  
 Without any substantiating evidence, how does the Managing Committee allowed 
such a notice to be published?   Why only on goanet?   Why was it not published 
in the local newspapers and other internet forums?   
Please desist from publishing such malevolent notices.  I demand an 
unconditional public apology from the persons associated with this posting.
Kuwait is not a large country and the land line phones are still free thanks to 
the authorities.   Using goanet mailing list is not in good taste.  If the 
intentions were good they would have called me and informed me about the 
meeting.   I am positive that the moderators will take note of such dubious 
characters.
With love, prayers and good wishes

[Goanet] Goa police question mother of dead British teenager

The Government of Goa and the Police should not be blamed in this particular 
( Rape/Murder Case) 3.00 am should be fast sleeping time in your house, 
accomodation or hotel room. How come @ 3.am the teenage girl came out of her 
house and for what purpose? .

Either for drugs, sex or for 
food..

Why did her mother ( Fiona ) left her grown-up daughter in Goa without 
proper shelter,money and clothing?...

What a big joke!!! A mother who is having so many children and also don't 
know some of her chlidren father's names??? This is to be question in 
London.

Who knows if the mother ( Fiona ) is involved in her own daughter's 
murder?..

Fiona had a murder case on her in London for killing one of her lover years 
back and  was jailed and later pardoned.

Goa Government and U.K. Government must first investigate the background of 
Mrs.Fiona, her lovers and husbands in U.K and later file the case against 
the criminals and punish them.

The rape/murder case in Goa has been blown up too much and the image of Goa 
and U.K has been portrayed very poor by the media in both countries.

Precautions are always better than medicines. In this episode mother is to 
be blamed for negligence. A good mother will never leave there under-age 
teenage children alone to someone unknown person anywhere in the world.

The Goans and Goa Government should not be blamed. It's a accident and a 
total negligence.

CARMO SANTOS / KUWAIT


"How did Mahatma Gandhi practiced the principles and teachings of Jesus???"

Let us find out from His own writings " my imperfections and failures are as 
much a Blessing from God as my successes and my talents, and I lay them down 
both at His feet. Why should He chosen me, an imperfect instrument,for such 
a mighty experiment? I think He deliberately did so. He had to serve the 
poor,dumb,ignorant millions. A perfect man might have been their despair.

When they found that one with their failings was marching on towards ahimsa 
( non-violence movement), they too had confidence in their own capacity. We 
should not have recognized a perfect man if he had come as our leader and 
we might have driven him to a cave. May be he who follows me will be more 
perfect and you will be able to receive his message " ( 21-7-1940 )

Yes! God giuded him to use some unique methods to achieve the GOAL of 
freedom. Indian history says: What was succeeded everywhere else did failed 
in India and what was never tried anywhere else did succeeded in India. The 
success of this non-violent revolution is perhaps, thus the biggest lesson 
for Indian leaders. It should make them realise the importance of coming out 
clean with unique management concepts for Indiansbecause it seems we are 
actually an unique combination of great values and cultures.

The world over bloody revolutions have led to independence but we attained 
through a wonderful hassel-free method and so every Indian marched, walked 
with Father of Nation Mahatma Gandhi to the doorsteps of an Independent 
India.

Let God guide and use you too !!! Jai Hind Jai Hind Jai Hind

On this day 15th of August, 2007 our Ali Baba 40 Chalis Goans ( AMDARS ) 
Stop looting, stop pulling down, stop boder crossing at any eleventh hour 
like today e.g Babush and Alemao did in Goa.. Please try to save India,Goa 
and Goans. Since 2nd June, 2007 our MLA's did not sleep well neither allowed 
our peace loving Goans to sleep well.

We have a very good sales in Goa for goan newspapers like Oheraldo, 
Navinhind Times, Gomantak Times etc etc. Also in demand all the goan 
websites

My suggestion to CM Kamat in the case of 3 disqualifications are taken place 
in couple of days then CM must directly absorb directly as ministers 
Mr.Aires Rodrigues and Floriano Lobo in place of Davlikar brothers and 
Mrs.Jenifer Monsarette in place of Mummy.This chemistry might work in the 
better interests of Goa and Goans.

Dear Mr. Tony Rodrigues,
 
Please don't use our young innocent school children for your dirty games. It 
looks like you are landed in Pakistan.
All our Indian Schools / Institutions are used to teach only good things and 
not bad things. Here in this particular
case you are using our small children for your selfish interests. Allow our 
sweet and tender children to study well
and be good doctors,engineers,lawyers,professors,religious leaders,mayors and 
politicians.
 
In Pakistan and Afganistan the governments have set-up Madrasas (Schools ) to 
learn how to use the guns against
their enemies and go in the Terorists-way. This is the reason behind Pakistan 
and Afganistan. So Mr.Tony, don't go
in dirty way. You can have a nice and decent dialogue with the government to 
solve the garbage problem.
 
Carmo Santos
 





 

PANAJI - The city councillors, teachers from the educational institutions in 
Mala/ Fontainhas ward, the 6,600-odd students from these schools and the 
residents of Mala, led by the Mayor, Mr Tony Rodrigues will oppose the 
International Film Festival of India 2008, scheduled to open in the city on 
November 22, if the government is unable to find a solution to the city garbage 
disposal problem.
�However, I hope that there is 90 per cent chance of the government reaching a 
solution before November 22, which is a deadline set by us,� the Mayor told the 
media on Wednesday.
Earlier in the day, around 350 students of the five educational institutions 
located in the Mala/ Fontainhas ward as well as situated along the Rua de Ourem 
creek poured a bucketful of garbage in the office of the Mayor denouncing the 
failure of the CCP in preventing the stench emanating from its anaerobic 
digester plant, at Patto. The students belonging to the educational 
institutions namely People�s High School, Mary Immaculate Girls High School, 
Mushtifund Middle and Primary School, Dr K B Hedgewar High School and Seventh 
Day Adventist Primary School were accompanied by their teachers, principals and 
headmasters. They also lighted candles and agarbattis at the entrance of the 
CCP headquarters.
Interestingly, Mr Dattatray Ghanekar, the president of Mother Earth, a 
city-based NGO concerned with environmental and health issues, which in 
association with the Goa People�s Forum, earlier guided a morcha of the 
students from Mala to the CCP headquarters, said that neither the organisers of 
the morcha wanted the students to pour garbage in the office of the Mayor, nor 
had they asked the students to give any slogans against the councillors.
�Some interested person misled a group of 40 students to enter the office of 
the Mayor and pour the garbage on his chair and table,� he stated. Few 
councillors like Ms Carolina Po and Ms Regina Almeida, however maintained that 
the entire incident was pre-planned and the students carried garbage with them 
right from the starting of the morcha.
The teachers from these schools, later in the evening attended a meeting 
convened by the Mayor and apologised to him for the action of the students. The 
teachers also agreed to join hands with the CCP to pressurise the government 
for reaching a solution to the city garbage problem by November 22.
It may be recalled that the students of these particular schools are facing 
serious health problems including stomachache, headache, nausea, throat 
infections and so on since past few months, due to the stink generated by the 
garbage at the Patto plant of the CCP.
Meanwhile, the deputy Mayor, Mr Yatin Parekh said that the anaerobic digester 
plant, at Patto was set up by a group of councillors without taking other 
councillors as well as the public into confidence. �The futility of the 
decision can be understood from the extreme step taken by the students,� he 
added.
In another development, the city MLA, Mr Manohar Parrikar and the 9 opposition 
councillors at the CCP on Wednesday complained to the chairman of the Goa State 
Pollution Control Board, Mr L U Joshi that the CCP is still dumping the city 
garbage at Patto, despite stop orders from the GSPCB.
�We request you to instruct the Panaji town police to conduct a thorough 
inquiry and also immediately stop illegal dumping of garbage, which has been 
causing severe health hazard to residents of Mala and students studying in 
educational institutions located in close proximity to the garbage treatment 
site,� the complaint stated

The predicament of Mr. Miguel Fernandes who had come to Kuwait for greener 
pasture from Goa (Loutolim - Salcette) just like most of us, was a victim of 
a road accident here in Kuwait.

On 14th of March Miguel was returning to his housing quarters after 
finishing his shift duty hours in the company transport, which overturned 
after colliding with a pick-up truck and then being rammed by a second 
following bus. Three personnel were killed and 17 others including Miguel 
were seriously injured.

Besides multiple fractures to this entire body, both of Mr. Miguel legs had 
to be amputated below the knee. He has been declared by the medical experts 
as 100% disabled from waist down.

Mr. Miguel works for one of the catering company who are sub contractor for 
Combat Support Associates (CSA) providing services to U.S. Army troops & 
Allied Forces at one of the camps, namely (Buehring). In regard to Mr. 
Miguel's plight, not much can be said & done. The catering company is now in 
the process of sending Miguel to Goa for his further treatment.

We kindly request all the Goan associations who would like to help Mr. 
Miguel in any kind or form, may contact his Brother Mr. Alex who works at 
the McDonalds in Jaberiya. Cell #760345.

Kuwait Airways seeks for more flights from Kuwait to India vice versa

"Kuwait is a developed country in the world of today. Kuwait has its own oil 
reserves which is enough for another 10 decades to maintain.

The undersigned is living and working in this country for the last 3 decades 
and that too in shipping and airline industry. This is the first time I came 
across in last 28 years that Kuwait Airways is threatening AIR-INDIA and 
INDIAN AIRLINES during summer peak hoildays season in demand of more flights 
to India which is rediculus and shameful.

Kuwait Airways should have raised this issue during off-season and serve 
notices to Air India and Indian Airlines atleast 6 months in advance. During 
this 6 months  if both countries fail to solve the contentious issue 
amicably then all our Indian summer passengers could have grace period to 
choose their airlines of choice for their holidays without any inconvience 
caused to them.

Kuwait Airways have 30 flights a week to India. In addition, Jazeera Airways 
is flying daily to India and whatelse they want more? Air India and Indian 
Airlines don't have a daily flight from India to Kuwait, instead opened the 
doors to Kuwait Airways and Jazeera Airways to operate their daily flights 
to India.

Out of the 600,000 Indians in Kuwait a major share of air-traffic have been 
controlled by Kuwait Airways compared to any other airlines in the world.

All the world dailies are having headlines of Kuwait Airways,Air-India, 
Indian Airlines and all its passengers who have booked their tickets for 
July,2007 and who have already travelled to India.

In my opinion Government of Kuwait should intervene and solve the issue as 
fast as possible so that our people can travel as per their bookings made 
earlier without any further disturbances.

Kuwait and India have excellant bilaterial relationship for the last 5 
decades and this relation should not be jeopardise by Kuwait Airways alone.

Let us join hands and work for a better tomorrow.

"Death leaves a heartache
No one can heal;
Love leaves a memory
No one can steal."

The Chairman, President, Managing Committee and Members of the Goan 
Cultural Centre-Kuwait join fellow Goans and the Mangalorean Konkani 
speaking communities to express their deep sympathies and grief on the 
tragic news of demise of Rosary Ferns.


We share with the family and his friends in the sadness and loss of a 
young, dynamic and talented Konkani stage writer-director-producer-singer.


May his soul rest in peace. Our sincere prayers to the Almighty.
This has been a tremendous shock on us all.

This is another poll gimmnick of Manohar Parikkarr of BJP!
 
Fielding 5 catholic week candidates for the March 3rd Election by Goa unit of 
BJP under directions from Parikkar and not the decision by central leadership 
of BJP. Parrikar feels that by fielding 5 catholics  he will be pardoned and 
forgiven for the sins committed by him in the past. No Mr.Parrikar, you are 
mistaken here or it is your mis-calculation. If you have real love and sympathy 
for the catholics then please field another 5 catholics and make it to 10 
catholics in total out of 40 Ali Baba's
 
In Cumbarjua BJP and MGP are supporting jointly to lone female candidate 
Ms.Nirmala Sawant against a Catholic Priest FR.Bismarque Dias because you know 
that neither BJP or MGP can win this seat. These are your week points. Its so 
easy in Goa to have AFFAIRS with anybody and it is said in Ajay Devgan's hindi 
movie " SINGHAM " that the liquor is expensive in Goa then the women. This 
saying is also applied to all the parties in Goa who can have affairs at 
anytime, anywhere,anyplace in Goa.This time there are NO courts, No Judges to 
punish the rapists but people are there to punish the parties.

Mr.Aires,
 
There is NO Democracy remain in the state of Goa now and it will not remain 
forever
 
In sports I have heard about MATCH FIXING but now I can see the Bloody Goan Ali 
Baba 40 chor
are more advanced in " ELECTIONS FIXING " Family Raj wants their next of kin in 
every party as
MLAs. You own be surprised for the Congress MLAs will even fix their candidates 
in BJP. Now they 
have succeeded in fixing their own candidates + seats in NCP. I won't be 
surprised anymore because
they must have already FIXED the CM chair, deputy CM, Speaker, deputy 
speaker,powerful portfolio
of PWD and Home Ministry. People of Goa must be prepared and ready to accept 
the shit from all MLAs

[Goanet] Nigerians living on photocopies of passports: Manohar Parrikar

2013-11-04 Thread Santos Carmo
What are the foreigners in Goa doing?? Are they employed by the Petroleum 
Companies, Gold Mines or by the  Ore companies?? And what is the Government of 
Goa doing??? There are Israelis living in Anjuna,Goa in large numbers, Russians 
in Morje,Goa and Nigerians in Parra,Goa,India. I can beleive that they are 
purely leaving on DRUGS buying and selling which is called a trade.

 

I agree that lots of Goans are working outside Goa,India in Oil Companies, Gold 
Mines, Industries, computers etc etc. and during their work stay in their 
respective countries if found guilty, then they are jailed and deported 
instantly. Why can't Goa Government do the same thing. If we don't have a valid 
documents in our hands at day time or night then the cops arrests us and 
deports us instantly and without no waste of time.

What do our Goa Government benefit from these bulk of foreigners leaving in 
Goa?? Wake up Goa, Wake up Goa Government, UTT GOENKARA!!!

Nigerians living on photocopies of passports: Manohar Parrikar

Manohar Parrikar said that the police were close to cracking the case of murder 
of Nigerian Obina Obiwesi. (File photo)Panaji:  The Goa government will write 
to the Nigerian embassy after a number of Nigerians living in Goa were found to 
be using only photocopies of passports and visas as proof of their nationality, 
Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar said on Monday.

Mr Parrikar was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a government function 
at the secretariat. 

"We have questioned a lot of Nigerians and were verifying their documents. Most 
of them have only photocopies of their passports and visas. We are going to ask 
the Nigerian embassy to verify these documents," Mr Parrikar said.

This is part of a verification drive started by the Goa government which will 
inspect documents of all foreign nationals living in the state.

The drive was announced after Nigerian nationals blocked a National Highway 
Thursday for hours protesting the murder of a Nigerian by a local drug gang.

Both MPs from the state as well as many people have been calling for a boycott 
of Nigerians living in Goa even as many liberals have called these statements 
'racist' in nature.

Mr Parrikar said that the police were close to cracking the case of murder of 
Nigerian Obina Obiwesi. 

He said the narcotics gang war which spilled out into the open last week will 
not mar the image of Goa as a tourism destination.

[Goanet] ALL FOREIGN NATIONALS OVERSTAYING IN GOA WITHOUT VALID DOCUMENTS SHOULD BE DEPORTED - Shantaram Naik

2013-11-09 Thread Santos Carmo
Dear Mr.Shantaram, ( UTT GOENKARA )

 

Please request the state government and the central government to give all the 
foreign nationals living in India without proper documents ( staying illigally 
) a grace period of 30 days as AMENESTY to leave the country without any fines 
or jail terms. They are all human beings and treate them with humanity. Don't 
treate them like the Saudis, Kuwaitis or any other gulf state who maltreat the 
Asians all the time.
