Dear Vivian,
 The answer is to show them the toilet and to show them how to use it, if 
they don't know how to use it.
 But what I see in many of the posts is just mass prejudice, blaming the 
sins of some on a billion other people.
 Regards,
 Victor

The behaviour of domestic tourists in India is most likely due to the potrayal 
of Goans in
Indian movies as drunks and the women having loose morals.  So they come to Goa 
thinking that they can have easy pickings.  As for their sanitary habits, they 
behave just the way that is normal for them in the areas that they come from.
 
Regarding toileting habits, I had a toilet and a small house built specially to 
house the occasional migrant worker that I hired when I first came to Goa.  I 
asked them to use the toilet instead of defecating around my property or the 
adjoining properties.  I did not trealize that these migrant workers had never 
seen a modern toilet with a flushing system.
They just defecated until the toilet bowl was full without once pulling the 
flushing chain.  When  several days later I asked one of my Goan workers to 
check on the toilet, they reported the  unbearable scene.  So having a toilet 
available for people used to defecating in the woods is not the answer.

Thanks for pointing that out, Gabriel. I know there are portable public toilets 
in Pangim, but I do not recall seeing public toilets in any of the villages I 
have visited, and I drive around quite a bit. But since a beginning has been 
made in the cities, we must hope that toilets will eventually be introduced in 
the villages as well.
 Warm regards to yourself and your loved ones, I remember the pleasant 
hours Lea and I spent in your home, the Beethoven sonata you performed, and the

If there are no functional toilets in the area, there is no point complaining.

Dear Bernice and Gabriel,
 In my village, which is no different from most other villages, some of my 
neighbours take in extra boarders, in direct violation of panchayat 
regulations. Panchayat rules also decree that people who do this should provide 
ex number of toilet inside their house in proportion to the number of boarder 
they take in. However, the homeowners do not provide such amenities, and 
instead ask their boarders to go and defecate in the woods and the hill slop 
behind our house and other people's houses as well.
 While you complain about "uncouth Indian hordes", what do you think about 
our own Goan homeowners in the situation I have just described? What epithet 
would you like to use to describe them?
 Are we not uncouth ourselves?
 And if you tell me that only some of us are uncouth, I would remind you 
that the same applies to those we have been attacking. Only some of our 
visitors are uncouth, as opposed to the millions of Indians who are not.
 Very best regards to the two of you, and also to BC, who is probably dying 
to pitch in.

If Goa is currently considered a part of India, no problems. But Goa does 
not have to do is to entertain  any riff-raff just because it is Indian. 
Does it?

That is why Special Status is very much the need of the hour for Goa.
Where there is will, there is a way.
Whether it is railway stations, entry points, airport or seaport. The 
vigilance must be there not to make Goa a hotch-potch of India.


I agree, that this is a manmoth task, but accost this situtation with 
planned caution, and the message sent will be just right. "Do not take GOA 
for GRANTED"

And,
This can and will be done when Goa has it's own High Command in Goa. Not 
otherwise.

Nice, in theory, but how do you expect this to be policed? Visas?

Policing may be fine at airport, but what about people coming by road? By 
train? Seems impractical to me. There'd be large queues of traffic at the 
border; and there would be a need for "border police" presence on trains. As 
it is, it appears that Goa Police conveniently disappear from the bridges 
allowing these out-of-state vehicles to travel recklessly overtaking every 
possible vehicle on the bridges without care, especially on the 31st. All 
racing to reach their north Goa destination as soon as possible so that 
their thirst for mhaja may be quenched...


In addition, would such policing be legal, since Goa is now considered part 
of India?

How GSRP will clean the Touristic messy scene in Goa.

1. Airport and all entry points into Goa shall be tightened to check 
visitors coming in do have hotel bookings/reservations, guest house, rented 
place, government dormitories, friends etc. If they do not have this 
requirement, then they shall not be allowed to enter into Goa or at least 
make such arrangement first at the entry point and then leave. The 
reservations/accomodations shall be cross-chequeed. If this is not 
practicable, then representative/s of such accommodation/s shall be 
required to be present at the entry-point. This will stop people coming in 
by bus loads and vans, eating, defecating and sleeping in fields, vacant 
plots, and, what is worse, in parks, gardens and on promenades like Panjim, 
Campal and Miramar, etc. There is no one to stop this in Goa because we 
have Indian Governing System where any and all Indians are welcome, even 
beggars.

And what have you GOANS got?
Now, hence forth, at least in 2017, you vote for GSRP the only Goa's own

Then and only then, this,  what you GOANS do not like will stop HAPPENING

we have Indian Governing System where any and all Indians are welcome, even 
beggars.


2. This system of entry into Goa shall be well advertized before the tourist 
season commences so that there should be no EXCUSE.


3. Vigilance shall be vested with the 'Tourist Police' with the Toursist 
Police well equipped and sensitized. If any serious lapses do take place 
because of the negligence of the Tourist Police personnel, then the Chief of 
the Tourist Police force will be AXED on immediate basis without questions 
asked.


Just like India requires a very strong deterrent for rape, which according 
to GSRP must be 'physical castration' of the culprit/s at the site of 
hanging and then hanged or handing over of the culprit/s to the 'PUBLIC' to 
do what it wants to do with them. If we want to arrest this 'rape' trend 
which has gone out of hand,  rapists should not be even alive to contest 
elections. To start with, all  parliamentarians and state legislators who 
are accused of rapes mush be CASTRATED forthwith, dismissed. Only then the 
Law should be passed against RAPES as above. The so called weeping Sonia 
Gandhi is for the public consumption and those who write about it in 
editorials are suspects of child abuses. India cannot ever come out with a 
strong enough deterrent and Rapes will be  common place UNLESS  one or two 
PARLIAMENTARIANS and STATE LEGISLATORS  are given the same experience that 
the BRAVEHEART has suffered.


During the Portuguese era in Goa, it must be remembered that there were not 
even robberies, forget about murders and rapes. If at all these had 
happened, then the culprits were made to wish they were not BORN in the 
first place. There was no chance given to repeat anything like this.


There was an instance when the Portuguese Commandant of the Military outpost 
in Altinho Panjim was shot dead by the armed guard on duty because the 
Commandant walked in, in  a drunken state and not heeding to the 'HALT' 
command. The Guard was promoted. He happened to be a  Mozambican Black.


This shit Indian Rule that we experience in Goa and elsewhere in the name of 
Democracy will never come close to what law and order the Portuguese have 
given to Goa and Goans. Try to do this, what is happening in India and 
especially our Goa in Singapore. It is a fully Democratic Country but our 
Goan Charlies who visited Singapore on a study tour which includes 
Pratapsing Rane,  came back to say that Singapore is a POLICE STATE.  Here, 
in Goa, the Police wants to sleep or if they don't want to do that, they are 
forced to go to sleep by these such like Politicians like Rane, Ravi Naik 
which includes the IIT'an Master Brain  MANOHAR PARRIKAR. The reason is 
VOTES.
