 This Lusofonia Games to be held in Goa was initiated by Konkness who were a 
part of the holiday trip for the first Lusofonia Games in Macau. I heard one of 
them saying amchiam ui korunk zata'. 
'Xitache fudar kedna mitt ghalinaka'.

Friends, Goans countrymen et  des gens d'autres pays. Aapno divas shubh
rahe. Svet je majhen!  Pourquoi dis-je? Lusofonia Games? when I should be
saying ?Lusophony Games? or ?Jogos da Lusiphonia? Porque n?o ? qualquer um
corrigir algu?m? Is it because of the political sensitivity of the event?
Or are people just being polite and snickering behind my back? Que sera
sera.

Vishnu Surya Wagh, Kala Academychya Sanmaneet Adhashya ahey. Alikadey
paryat tyani Goa Lusophony Games sahbhagi verodh kela hota. We couldn?t let
this become an international embarrassment to our state. Nous laissons Wagh
composer une chanson speciale pour les jeux. Cosa fa? Was macht er? To
kitem korta? Unhonee panch alag alag bhasa mein ek geet banaya! Matro ekti
bhasha jothesh?o noe.

Now where does that leave me, mogall bhavano anu bhoinenim? I have to beat
that. Voici donc mon discours inaugural dans plus de cinq langues.
Versuchen Sie schlagen das, Vishnu Wagh! Anche il pazzo dice talvolta
parole da savio.

Thodde der ke liye rajniti aur vyakaran ko bhul jate hain aur khell ke bare
mein baat karte hain.  Da chi mi fido, mi guardi Dio, da chi non mi fido
guarderò io. Jaise Pierre de Coubertin ne kaha,  “La chose la plus
importante dans les Jeux Olympiques n'est pas de gagner mais de participer,
l'essentiel dans la vie n'est pas la conquête, mais bien lutter.” But that
was about the Olympics. Bem, eu nao posso fazer nada se os Jogos Lusofonia
sao tao recentes que nao ha citacoes dignos sobre eles. Mens sana in
corpore sano

Quinhentos anos de volta a Goa Português capturado.  Panch dashak pahele
Bharat ne Goa ko murt karaya. That can be taken as an invasion or a
liberation men jeg er ikke her for at diskutere, at.  Portugal amkam ek
channel koshem zalam. Les Jeux Lusophonie nous permettent de canaliser
l'argent de Delhi. A Portuguese passport allows us a channel to Europe.
 Life is about channels. Laten wij deze kanalen te herkennen en vieren ze.
A caval donato non si guarda in bocca. Pecunia, si uti scis, ancilla est;
si nescis, domina.

Long live the Lusophony Games!  Viva Portugal! Jai Hind! Zoi Goem! Politics
are temporary, channels are forever!

Lusofonia has no colonial association: Bhakta

PTI, PANAJI | 26 August 2013 18:05 IST
Indian contingent for the forthcoming Lusofonia Games in Goa will be named
as India (Goa), the organisers said.

The Games are a Portuguese Commonwealth event, in which all the
Portuguese-speaking countries can take part, Goa Olympics Association
President Gurudatta Bhakta said, denying that it had any colonial
associations.

Some confusion here. Goa is no longer Portuguese speaking country and
neither is India. The Games has colonial association and it's no point in
Bhakta trying to deny this. Bombay and Bengal also came under the
Portuguese for some period in their histories. No doubt Goa experienced the
longest rule of the Portuguese.

2013-07-18 Thread Eugene Correia
In the Lusofonia Games, the participating nations go under the country
names. Wiki mentions that there were 11 participating nations. In 2009, 12
nations took part. If athletes take part as nations, such as India, why are
not athletes from Mumbai and Kolkata as well as from Daman and Diu
included? As we know, the then Bombay and Kolkata came under Portuguese
rule. Why only athletes from Goa?
The official page of the Luso Games for Goa says:
About
The Official Page of The Lusofonia Games 2013, Goa. The Lusofonia Games are
among the largest and the most prestigious multinational, multi-sport games
in the world organized by ACOLOP. The 3rd edition will be held in Goa,
India from 2nd-10th Nov, 2013.
Description
The Lusofonia Games (Portuguese: Jogos da Lusofonia) is a multinational
multi-sporting event organized by the ACOLOP, which involves athletes
coming from Lusophone (Portuguese-speaking) countries, namely those
belonging to the CPLP (Community of Portuguese Language Countries), but
also others where there are significant Portuguese communities or that have
a common past with Portugal.

This event is similar in concept to the Commonwealth Games (for members of
the Commonwealth of Nations) and the Jeux de la Francophonie (for the
Francophonie community).
General Information
The first Lusofonia Games were held in Macau, China from 7-15 October,
2006. 733 Athletes participated from 11 countries. The second edition was
held in Lisbon, Portugal from 11-19 July, 2009. 1300 Athletes participated
from 12 countries.

[Goanet] Lusofonia games- Sports, Shopping or 'S'

2006-10-11 Thread Bernado Colaco
One wonders why the Goans came to Macau? I have seen
athletes from other countries striving very hard, and
taking Independent Timor Leste as an example. Sri
Lanka athletes struck Gold. Their 1500m runners pulled
off a great run in the last 200m to beat his
Portuguese rival. 

Where are the Goans? One months preparation for Table
Tennis, when Portuguese players play everyday and in
world class competitions. The fault does not lie in
the young Goan boys and girls who are full of talent.
But the bloody adults who come in as officials but
have spent time across the border of Macau shopping.

I do not want to write about the 'S' bit that would be
very damning.

I hope the probharats take note of my post and open
their eyes.
