We are pleased to be entertained by their abuses against goan crabs and treat their 'Stray Thoughts' as second to the Holy scriptures. -We have the Pandits, Ramanis, Prasads, Vermas and other migrants telling and even leading goans into what they need to do for their state. -Then we have the foreign patron goans who will get carried away with any crap sold to them about 'Saving Goa' and will not question but part with their financial support. Over and above, even if warned, they will turn back and rebuke you for being negative. - More money, no worry. The lawyers are there. Do not waste time in agitating on the streets, just file a PIL at the drop of a hat and take pride of going endlessly to court and enjoying the media publicity. The issue is forgotten 2 years later and in all probability the petition will also fail. But by that time the mobs attention is diverted to something more mesmerising. Isn't Aldeia issue rotting in court. Whose money? - Build an NGO brand 'Save Goa' and people will be running after you aimlessly. That is what one Bhatikar is now supposedly employed to do in a run up to the polls. You will be state funded to divide and rule. -Talk about a well defined vision and code of conduct for members for a long term movement and you will not land up with anyone behind you. Free lancing in activism without accountability is the mantra in Goa today. We have MSWs, not Male Sex Workers by the way. -Organise a public rally at Panjim or Margao and also provide for the bus transport and refreshments if you want a crowd of goans to swear about 'Saving Goa'. - Demand accountability from activist leaders and see the slander and abuse against you by the media and the public. You will be turned 'saffron'. - Goans cannot yet decide on 'Who is a Goan' and what more can be expected of them to 'Save Goa'. Which Goa? - where communal elements go as secular and vice versa. Communal elements can get a State funeral. They will now bring in Supa from karwar into Goa but leave out Haliyal as it is . - For 49 years goans have been taken for a joy ride but will never learn their lesson. - At the end of the day if there is 'pikasao' you can hit the nearest taverna which number more than restaurants. It is there that revolutions get started by night only to wound up by morning. Goa cannot hope for a revolution in such a dilapidated social and mental condition. regards, Soter

We all need to contribute to Goa by our actions. Now, I was canvassing for ground support ( as I am being a non resident Goan beggar here in a distant land) to form a committee of foot soldiers who are active in Goa to organise Anti Corruption Rally on Goa Liberation Day. Though Goans were liberated from Portuguese in 1961 we are yet to be liberated from corruption that came along with our integration with the rest of India. And this was their observation " non resident Goan will talk, walk, run and dance, but ask some financial help for social cause, their pocket go empty". Another said "During Sunday church collection they (NRG) drop biggest currency note they have in the wallet because his neighbor is looking, but when it come to the helping the cause they chicken out. No one bother to ask who gets (Priests or Church) that dole but will ask thousand question if asked donation for social cause". Let's stop being skeptical and cynical about Goa and Goans. To stop the current loot and plunder, can we stand out and pull out Anti Corruption Rally in Goa? Can we contribute it as our royalty fee to our motherland for using/connecting 'Goa'? Any donors and volunteers out here on GOA NET? BTW, Air travel sponsored by Vijay Mallya. Do we need to guess anything besides what Soter has already highlighted?

Hi Soter, These vermin never give up do they? Their greed knows no bounds and they will stoop to whatever means they can to achieve their corrupt goals. HOW CAN WE STOP THEM FROM LOOTING US EVEN FURTHER? Is there anything that the ordinary Goan can do to stem this unnecessary bleeding that these corrupt individuals are imposing upon us? If there is, pray let us know as I feel it is imperative that we put into motion plans to upset and stop this Rape of our beloved Goa. If there is any one with any suggestions as to what we can do to achieve our ends and the aspirations of the humble majority of Goans, please post your views so that we all UNITED and change the course of this unsustainable and devastating path that Kamat and his Forty thieves are leading us down. Regards and best wishes. Manuel (Eddie) Tavares

If you cannot sell the proposition in Goa then do it via Delhi. The malyalee fish monger and his lobsters have not been able to sell the RP-2021 to the goan crabs on behalf of Digambar and his builders. The goan crabs have refused to bite it and instead have bitten those very people who have betrayed the goan cause. So Digambar's baton with his RP2021 Special Task Force is now slated to arrive in Delhi on 18th September 2010 and will be received the Goenkarancho Ekvott. Minus the speaker Mathany Saldanha and the chair for one session Dr. Peter Rony, it is hard to notice any other that does not directly or indirectly tow the builder /real estate developer agenda in presenting the USP of the RP2021 before supposedly goan masses to get their stamp of approval and market it back to the people in Goa. It is like a cat covering its shit. What is simply misleading is the fact that this RP-2021 process is being hailed as 'participatory'. The note of Goenkarancho Ekvott states; "it is first time spatial planning and land use is being determined with people's participation from the village level upwards." Merely sending down pre-determined settlement fencing maps and road lay outs (designed by those with vested interests in real estate) to the Village Panchayats for suggestions and corrections cannot be claimed to be participatory planning from the village level upwards. It could be remotely considered as 'participatory consultation' on RP2021. Where are the village socio-economic plans prepared under this RP2021 so called participatory process? The RP 2021 is a fraud. It may be participatory for architects, engineers, real estate developers and planners in safe-guarding their long-term business interests from the national builders/real estate developers and nothing more. That is why some of the torch-bearers of the Goa Bachao Abhiyan in 2006 are today busy erecting or supporting massive gated projects in the villages and have even disputed the right of Gram Sabhas to decide on spatial plans and the type of development in their villages. They do not mind the local Devashri's, Sapna's, CD's, mosiacs and others from developing on hill slopes, all they are concerned about is obstructing DLF and Raheja by cheering unsuspecting desperate villagers. This RP2021 cannot be claimed to be in consonance with article 243ZD of the Constitution of India. Even the consultative process carried out in villages has no legal status. There were no notified guidelines. The forwarding letter from the CTP was vague and interpreted by the representative planners as per the interests they wished to protect. At least 50% of the village Gram Sabhas in Goa are in the dark on this process. It were the local MLAs and Sarpanchas that nominated a committee and sent in their suggestions without consulting the Gram Sabha. That is why the government is now contemplating to release the RP 2021 in phases and taluka-wise so that there is no major out-burst. The entire process continues under the very same primitive and obsolete TCP Act of 1975 that gave birth to a monstrous RP 2011. Except that the 'Monster Rat' has now been replaced by 'Monster Foxes'. There are no 'District Development Plans' in place. What is in place is a plan to ensure the future loot and ransacking of the villages of Goa and infusing migrants in gated housing complexes. This is a road map on how Goans will be reduced to ancient specimens by 2021 for migrant site seeing. It is an investment map for the Ramani's, Lamani's, Jaitley's, Chauhan's, Tariqs and the rest. Concerned Goans in Delhi and elsewhere need to take a close look at the RP 2021process which is being marketed to them as 'Unique' if they are to understand the 'Picnic' of architects, engineers, builders and bureaucrat planners in this deceptive RP. -Soter D'Souza
