< you have not answered the question, and identified what are the perks in the first place.> Ah! Gabriel.....there you are ...Ducking Questions. BUT Look Who Is Talking!!!! Herr Gilberto who posted thus: <members of the Armed Forces pay the same direct and indirect taxes which everyone else pays in this country without exception> but then DUCKED the question (like the ones before) i.e. Would you say that the prices in the "canteen" are the same as the MRP in Goa? Let us take one item at a time. How much TAX does the base hand over to Goa for the Hercules XXX Rum sold at Dabolim? == In any event, Gabriel de Figueiredo's article (in 5 parts) DABOLIM and TAIP has just been uploaded at the NEW section of The Goan Forum http://www.colaco.net This is the FIRST DRAFT edition - sans photographs (They should be loaded late tomorrow evening) Your comments are welcome. I am sure that Gabriel himself will welcome them good wishes jc
