Dear Menin, Your article is an excellent expose of the Goan situation. Enjoyed reading it fr beginning to end. For your inform. I lived virtually fr the time I was a baby in Tanzania. Came back to retire in 2004 at age 70. Have enjoyed the 7 years I have lived in my partents home that I maintained while in Tanzania. Enjoy the kind of social life and friendliness that still prevails among my fellow Goans, particularly Christians and Hindus. I would not want to retire anywhere else in world, despite the set backs and trauma I experienced in the beginning, despite the nature of politics, the garbage mess, the congestion on the roads, the rocketing prices of property, etc. It is the human warmth that keeps my spouse and I happy. All the best. Come back to Goa. Adrian J Fernandes, Sangolda, Bardez, Goa 8 January 2012

GOA -- enlightening experience, bamboozling future

By Menin Rodrigues
Karachi, Pakistan

          JANUARY 8, 2012 - I returned to Goa after 24 months
          to attend a family wedding in Colva.  It was a
          wonderful, enlightening experience and we shared
          great moments of joy and camaraderie -- there being
          a bond that continues to lure me back to my roots.
          I hail from Karachi, Pakistan where we are about
          15,000 Goans, a fact that came as a surprise to
          people I met here!
