Indian troops marched into Goa on December 19th 1961Was it the 59th or the 60th anniversary ? Could be both depending on where you were born and your upbringing.. A very close friend of mine of Chinese origin counted his age from the day he was born, being one year on that date..When I came to Goa, I came across a fellow Goan who also counted his age from the day he was born. This may be a cultural thing. By no means should we get upset especially on a relatively trivial matter, to the point of using profanity on Goanet..In this instance, thrice in one post. Using profanity is a reflection on one's culture and upbringing. I am surprised that the watchdogs of Goanet allowed this to happen.
