I ask him: based on what he (Roland) knows about Junagadh, Hyderabad (Deccan) and Pondicherry, does Roland believe that: (a) Nehru spoke to Salazar (b) those were his words or sentiments? IF Nehru was such a great proponent of the Right to Freedom of Self Determination, do you believe he would have asked Goans what they wanted? I see RF comparing Goa 1961 with Goa 2014 - as if to make a point. How about comparing Goa 1961 with Ratnagiri 1961? A question has to be asked: IF Goa 2014 is as brilliant as RF says it is, what is he doing in Canada? All these leftie 'lip service' experts are just as 'brilliant' as the ones of the right. jc
Re: [Goanet] São Francisco Xavier
What has the relic in Coloane near Macau got to do with the Ceylonese claim that the uncorrupted body in Old Goa is that of a Buddhist monk. It is irrelevant thinking like this that probably made Salazar say "Goa is ours" when Nehru asked him sometime in the mid-50s, what would be the best solution for the future of Goa. Salazars meaning was; I see no future for Goa. Roland.
