Gabe,

An apology is also due for the BJP government's complete inaction in 
the Mala-Fontainhas vandalism case, where photos clearly identify some 
of the perpetrators.

I used to be a big supporter of Manoharbab, as were many members of the 
Catholic community in Panjim until these two incidents.

In case Carmo and Cajetan are not aware, there is a very slim chance of 
Parrikar standing for elections in Panjim next year(he will try his 
luck in his native Mapusa, I'm guessing!) because of these two 
incidents. If he does he has absolutely no chance of winning.

Best Regards
Sunith

Cajetan, You make it sound as if Goa makes up its mind collectively on
whom to elect in any election. If at all it's anyone's fault (and keep
in mind, the BJP has never been able to win a single election in Goa,
though it managed to rule, directly and indirectly for nearly
half-a-dozen years) it was the BJP's own fault.

For many in Goa, it is still seen (not without reason) as an
upper-caste, anti-minority political party. Some understand it's
ideology, even those who don't, know what it implies for them. The
Congress, meanwhile, is working hard to make the BJP's dream come
true. By taking the support of the very same mafia that brought the
BJP to power, and kept it there. (Both politicians and lobbies.) Media
manipulation, including cyber-manipulation, is helping in a big way,
too. If we keep trying ... we just might get there. FN

A Chief minister asks the education department to come
out with a VCD showing Goa's history.
History cannot be changed. Whatever history has been
established over the years is documented. A community
made atrocities to gather people in their fold several
hundred years back. That is history. That does not
change anything that happens in the future. The
department came out with the VCD. Now, whatever
happened 500 years back, is it Parrikar's fault?
Is it his fault that people don't realize that that
history happend 500 years back and does not change
anything?

Cajetan Rego,
Tivim Goa.

  Organising IFFI 2004 was a near-impossible feat

  That talks of his efficiency. Had it not happened,
 Goa would have lost it to
  some other state. IFFI is an event that has a high
 potential of generating
  revenue for the state. Goa has to capitalise on
 its popularity and Parrikar
  rightly tapped it. Money does not fall from the
 sky. All expenditure on IFFI
  is an investment  that gets recovered several
 times.

  It is high time we Goans realize this and give
 Parrikar a clear majority. It
  is the leadership that matters. The rest of BJP is
 not any better than the
  Congress, I agree. IITian or not, Parrikar is
 efficient.

Dear Carmo,

 Bosco,

 What was so simple about Dominic's sarcastic question. I think he got an 
 appropriately
 packed punch for an answer. Once again you are taking sides.You seem to 
 imply that
 99.9% of Goans are Dominic's friends and cuzners and botlers. Sounds Like 
 Nehruvian
 elitism just after the liberation of Goa all over again !

COMMENT: Was it Manohar bab or the BJP that started the IITs and IIMs in 
India. Or are we in Orwellian 1984? Nice to know that Manohar has well 
qualified shoe-shine boys else where in the world also. I thought that 
Rajendra Arlekar, Dinar Bhatkar[incidentally, an IITian specializing in 
unsuccessful Sewage treatment plants and NRI meets till last year], Satish 
Dhond,  Laxmikant Parsekar and VHP's unprincipled Principal Subhash 
[Sah-bash]Velingker and his cronies were enough. Perhaps not really so.

 Manohar and I have discussed ways to get 99.9 of Goan Youth who want to 
 study hard
 to get into the elite Indian Institutes of Technology, all for the greater 
 Good of Goa !

COMMENT: The records show that not a single student from a Goan school got 
into an IIT or IIM anywhere in India during the two consecutive, but 
short-lived, BJP-led Govts. in Goa. No prizes for guessing who was the BJP 
CM then. This year there were half a dozen entrants..and obviously Luizinho 
Faliero feleicitated them publicly in Goa. Of course, you were not in Goa 
then...since you continue in Manohar Fairyland!

 Manohar Parrikar has the reputation of a clean politician - a rarity in 
 Goa these days
 - with CM Rane and his shadier son Viswajeet making shady land deals in 
 the CM.s
 office these days. You can try to figure out when and from whom Manohar 
 took bribes
 when he was CM and you will come up short Thats an achievement in itself !

COMMENT: This is one point I have to agree with you. Manohar bab CLEANED the 
city of Panaji [with help from Sanjit Rodrigues]. He also CLEANED the 
state's coffers to fund the IFFI [ostensibly to be re-imbursed by the 
central BJP Govt, but that never happened] and fund his party through the 
goodwill of the contractors. The footpaths are still not paved with 
gold...or properly with paver blocks, the Garcia da Orta garden is in a 
mess. To his credit, he has got a good job done of the Old GMC building and 
we have a Multiplex.

Unmingled joys to no man befall;
Who least, hath some.
Who most, hath never all
wrote H.W. Longfellow

Parrikar did his fair share of land conversions under Section 17 of the TCP 
Act. He was also the Chairman of the TCP Board that prepared the DRAFT FINAL 
REGIONAL PLAN 2011 between 1999 and 2005 for the longest period as the CM 
between 2000 and 2005!

Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. It is the likes of 
Manohar who bastardize history and put in in VCDs like GOA FREEDOM STRUGGLE 
using lackeys with convenient names and easy morals.

 Flee away from ambition, by that sin fell the angels.wrote  John Milton 
in 'Paradise Lost'. in 2005, the communal harmony paradise of Goa was 
regained. the Congressmen only rob our money...not our value system and 
beliefs.

 I have known Manohar Parrikar for a long time, since the mid 70s infact. 
 At IIT Bombay
 Manohar's greatest achievement was when he cleaned up the organizational 
 mess (kitchen
 and dining hall) and turned it around to look like a 5-star restaurant. As 
 Goa CM, he will
 also clean up the currrent mess in the Goa Government and we will finally 
 attain Our Goa
 Dourada (Golden Goa) !

COMMENT; Tenga! Manohar bab is NOT likely to become Goa's CM now or ever! 
Cleaning a hostel mess or the mess some hostelites make on week-ends is one 
thing, running a Government in Goa is another. One historical fact is that 
the BJP never had a majority of MLAs elected on its symbol in Goa or at the 
Centre. Those who buy MLAs to cobble up a majority pay through their nose. 
Manohar knows how he lived with the bunch of fools that he had for Ministers 
[save Matanhy and Digambar] and had to try and survive by asking his Speaker 
to resort/accept forgery and deceit.

It does not behoove a person who feels that he is EDUCATED to deride others 
by calling them names. Perhaps, the IITs only impart technical 
skills...totally neglecting
