"I was actually flabbergasted to read Jose Almeida's message of 19.9.10.
When are Goans like him going to see themselves as Indians? Are they
waiting for another colonial power to deliver them from India! After
deliberation I think there is no use singling Goans out. Almost
everybody is a parochialist in India and all of them are busy preparing
to lead the country into utter chaos."
Soter asks:
How does one come to know that Goan pscyhe has assimilated itself into
Indian culture?
Spit paan and piss anywhere and everywhere?
Stinking sewers and street urchins all over?
Sprawls of slums all around the city?
women in ghungat?
Hindi as the sole language?
No road sense or compassion for the poor?
No respect for laws, muscle rules?
Eat, bathe and shit in the same water?
Hindi music and bal'le bal'le?
What, What , What is Indian????????
The devil deserves to be commended where it is due.
We salute the Portuguese for instilling in the Goan community some fear of
the law and concern for health and sanitation.
