Dear Goanetters What finally happened to the sad Melvin Gomes murder case... has the hands of the men in power been greased ? Was the lad's life worth only a few bags of cement ? Is transfering the corrupt cop the only solution? why are the murderers still at large ? Francis > 10.

Kudos to Remo for coming out so openly against our totally corrupt politicians who have raped and sold Goa for a song only for their selfish ends. Today Goans are like immigrants in their own land and are being completely outnumbered. The politicians are playing their game of dividing goans and paving the way for these outsiders to step in. Where is the Goa of the past...the serenity and calm atmosphere we lived in...the comfort of a secure house where I remember we could have an afternoon siesta with the doors and windows open. Today nothing can be left unattended for a second...thanks to our glamorous politicians who are living a life beyond luxury. Talking about drugs...we have our Home Minister proudly announcing that there are no drugs in Goa...What a laugh that statement made. Could there be any hidden agenda in that statement The Scarlette murder...the numerous rapes and murders once unheard of in Goa are today a daily affair making Goa the capital of notorious activities which naturally attracts the Mafias from around the world. The recent arrest of a small drug peddlar Chimulkar at Anjuna - If this bloak can ammass a wealth of over RS. 2 Crores what about the kingpins who have been in this trade for decadesand don't be surprised we have our politicians among them some of whom have proxy owners for their wealth. Then we have the Panchayats from the coastal areas who amass loads of wealth in terms of kickbacks and bribes for granting any civil permissions...and the list goes on. At one time we blamed the Portuguese for plundering GoaNow things have changed.Indian Politicians are doing the job at a much greater pace. _ Catch the latest in the world of fashion http://lifestyle.in.msn.com/

Rape of Goa I do no understand why so much hue and cry and a political furore is being created over the alledged rape of a German teenagerWhy is the law not allowed to take it's own course and pin the culprit ?? Why was a similar furore not created over the alleged rape and murder of Scarlett ..On the contrary besides harassing the mother to every level possible and hindering medical investigation our Home Minister went to the extent of trying to block her entry back to India. Even our Utt Goekara Chief was biased in this case where in he filed a case agaist Fiona for neglegence of her minor daughter. Adv. Aires...what is more grave ...rape & murder or neglect of the teenagerYes the neglect did lead to the rape & murder...does this mean that the culprits should go scott freeand the two boys in jail were only scapegoats covering influential main culprits. And Aires..why did you stay quiet on this...just because the Home Minister's son was involved.What are your issues with Babush...Is the Home Minister more educated than him Aires...today it is not just the foreigers who are being raped by our politicians and their familiesIt's our land...our rivers...our future. _ Searching for weekend getaways?

What a Shamewhere is Goa heading ? First it was the Scarlette episode and now the German girl .in both cases a Minister's son has been involved ??? What a pity we have elected such criminals to represent us and safeguard our statetoday goans are outnumbered in our own den selling our land to outsiders...what a sorry state of affairs. Another surprising fact in the Scarlette episode is instead of tackling the main issue of rape and murder...the authorities are circling around the mother's lack of responsibility and neglect. In this case what is more grave...do we have the right to rape and murder if a girl is left unattended to _ Search for videos of Bollywood, Hollywood, Mollywood and every other wood, only on Live.com http://www.live.com/?scope=video&form=MICOAL
Re: [Goanet] Goanet Digest, Vol 3, Issue 1006
Goa and Goans A lot of repercussions are being felt and voiced on the influx of non goans in Goa and the way they treat the sons of the soil. The incidents voiced by Remo and another goan origin Brit are just tips of the iceberg. If a personality like Remo could be given that sort of treatment...what about the goans who do not share the fame and limelight enjoyed by Remo ? Today we read of keralites, Sindhis and Bengalis proudly proclaiming their mingling with goan culture.who would not like to enjoy goan culturetoday the non goans settled in goa are enjoying the cream thanks to our hospitable nature. The day is not far when our home will be filled with outsidersand we goans will be kicked out from our balcony.all this while our politicians are busy in sez and other money flaundering activies _ Searching for the best deals on travel?

Re: [Goanet] Katrina to play Scarlett in movie
Scarlette Keeling is set to haunt Goa not with her Ghost but with a movie depicting her life in Goa and her death. How comercial and cheap one can be to capitalise on one's sad and sorrowful destiny. Instead of joining hands to combat crime, our film industry is No. 1 to capitalise on it...after all isn't crime, drunkeness, drugs and sex the essense of our movies And what is the Director of the film trying to potraythat Goans are druggist and rapist.they did it in Amar Akbar Anthony where Goans were potrayed as drunkardsand I also remember a film on Aids was to be shot in Goa.. Instead of tarnishing the image of Goa why don't they potray the lives of the Ministers and Builders who are gang raping the Goan landscapeWhy don't they potray the lives of Digu Kaka and Rane who are heading the corrupt regime.. Today Goans are outsiders in their own land .is it the age of Rip Van Vinkle...
