[Goanet] Memorial

[Sharmila Rao]

Honestly it should not come as a Surya. BJP has declared war against
environment in Goa. Being dictatorial is another BJP hallmark

[Goanet] A passing thought.

[Sharmila Rao]

this is a passing thought. Would be interested in knowing everyone's take.

The mango flavour.

It was the alumni weekend at manipal I met a friend who had done her
engineering from KREC and currently resides abroad. She was appreciating
how focused her class fellows had become. She was impressed that they were
planning their kid’s studies undergraduate at that abroad, albeit with one
person it was Ireland. No offense meant but it talks of an attitude of the
so called educated class of the country. the steps to success--

1.   Do engineering.

2.   Take up a job that links you to some Whiteman’s land.

3.   Dual citizenship and invest in property in India, (preferably the
agricultural ones you know its value is tremendous on conversion.)

Okay, our education system is not like the west.  So how do you reckon we
can make it on par? Though I am not sure why we should have a system that
is occident friendly instead creating skills and knowledge required to
enhance our country.

The fundamental criteria for choosing a subject and career stream is not
the child’s interest, or even talent, the sole criteria is does the
qualification get him/her a job abroad, preferably in the west. What I am
trying to say is our education has alienated us from ourselves. We refuse
to repay our society, for what it has given us; neither do we care enough
to have a vision for our country and our future we know we have slave lords
who can hire us.

 That is India’s greatest dishonour her progeny does not think her worth
nurturing, we see no future for our country.

Every movie, serial that is “patriotic/nationalistic” will show a
politician, a foreign villain. But we refuse to accept that put the
politician there.

If Russians have taken over Morjim, we have let them like we are giving
Gokarna to them on a platter.

The mango flavour this season is a hope in the sense an attempt by the
citizens to take responsibility. since most of the people who have thrown
the glove are educated some with a MBA or some administrative degree to the
boot it would be interesting to pin them down to create a vision a larger
one for the country, I mean a vision board that we put up with execution
plan with a timeline for the next 5yrs. One for each portfolio.

I really wonder if we can demand it?

After all a vision board is the plan to success and that’s what we are
looking at.

Before leaving you with this stuff, maybe we need to create our vision with
regard to our country and ourselves.
