Re: [Goanet] News: Outsider arrested for accepting too low a bribe
Following the arrest of the migrant Registrar of Cooperatives for corruption we have reports about the arrest of 5 migrants for extortion of garbage collectors in St. Inez. They are Ramesh Pujari, Maruti Arigal, Laxman Kumbhari, and Kalesh Ramalgi. Along with the Ramanis and lamanis we also have very productive criminals from all parts of India adding to the cultural flavour of Goa. Come from Bombay, Come from Delhi, Come for anywhere! If you are looking out for pleasant hide-out friend, Come to Goa, Come to Goa, Goa tumchem re!

You guys would do yourselves and Goa a big favour if you focussed on corruption, instead of ethnicity!

Re: [Goanet] News: Outsider arrested for accepting too low a bribe
Here comes Frederick the ethnic watch dog for the migrant cause in Goa. Everyone else must fight corruption while his mouth is locked and hands are tied to ensure acceptability of the establishment to avail government schemes. Frederick must first show what he has done to expose corruption in the last 5 years. -Soter

[A] Rajan Parrikar (tongue in cheek) noted that an outsider, was arrested yesterday by the Vigilance bureau for accepting an amount that was deemed too low by the standards acceptable to Goa and Goans.

COMMENT: Do not know if ethnicity is the appropriate word for use in this context, but even if it is May I ask Frederick Noronha: HOW, focusing on corruption in Goa would do Rajan/Soter etc and/or Goa a big favour? Reading from afar, I took the above Rajan/Soter statements to mean that the nuevo-Bhaille have brought to Goa a depressingly unprecedented level of corruption. Is Frederick suggesting that this is not true, or (if true) is he suggesting that he has been focusing on corruption in his posts to newspapers and news agencies? jc
[Goanet] News: Outsider arrested for accepting too low a bribe
To Goanet - GOA news service - Panaji: According to a news report in NT, an outsider, Mr Patidar, was arrested yesterday by the Vigilance bureau for accepting Rs 15,000 (fifteen thousand rupees only) in bribes, an amount that was deemed too low by the standards acceptable to Goa and Goans. Digambar Kamat, the CM of Goa, has expressed shock and convened an emergency meeting of his cabinet to address the crisis that threatens to engulf the tiny state. We cannot tolerate such lapses in our standards, said the CM, adding, I will personally study the issue and get back to you. The CM was flanked on the left by Mr Alemao and on the right by Mr Rane, both of whom are said to be deeply shaken by Mr Patidar's temerity to demand such a paltry amount. Mr Bansal, President of OGG (Outsiders Guild of Goa), strongly condemned Mr Patidar. In a press release, Mr Bansal noted that for decades Goans have been most solicitous of outsiders. We have been welcomed with open arms by Goans, and allowed to suck the state dry and enrich ourselves. Such is the legendary Goan tolerance. Even our ghati members have set a tier of 25,000 rupees as the minimum acceptable bribe. Mr Patidar has clearly violated our charter and we have no choice but to expel him. Admin Noronha, Goa's leading gossip-and-smear merchant, smelt a saffron rat in the whole affair and exhorted authorities to explore the saffron angle. Digambar Kamat's footsie dancing partner Dr Oscar Rebello could not be reached for comment. Our Delhi bureau adds: The High Command lead by Smt Sonia Gandhi has been apprised of the Goa crisis and is taking stock of the situation. Smt Gandhi is learnt to have been alarmed at the declining standards. My family and the chamchas of my family have stolen thousands of crores from India and stashed them away in Swiss bank accounts. We must immediately tackle these slackers, she is learnt to have said.
