Jose,

I have never met Dr. Wilfred de Souza (current Tourism Minister). About a month 
ago the GOAN
OBSERVER named him "Rat of the Year". In 2003 it named Mathany Saldanha, in 
2004, Rane (if I
remember correctly). The article described two phases of Dr. Wilfred de Souza - 
one honest,
decent, non-corrupt. The other phase is different and post acquisition of a 
son-in-law: corrupt,
hence "Rat of the Year" (one has to read the entire article as I may be 
over-simplifying). Is it
your view that politics in Goa corrupts all, even professionals?  Or is there 
another reason
professionals should not be in politics?

Regards,
George
