http://www.palacio.in/waterfront.htm The sign on the highway - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-1.jpg The (Orissa) guarded entrance and the "no trespassing" notice. Very soon we Goans will be trespassers in our own land. http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-2.jpg The usual 'permissions' from the TCP Dept etc - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-3.jpg View from the highway: the concrete turd rises - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-4.jpg The view beyond the fence - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-5.jpg The entire ecology of what is an 'agar' is in peril - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-6.jpg "Holiday (at) Home - The Palacio Waterfront." Wasn't this once a shrimp processing plant? http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-7.jpg Goa Velha will soon be awash in outsiders. Those responsible for this destruction of Goan land, Goan landscape, the character of our villages, and with it our Goan identity, are criminals. Either Goans rise now in rebellion or we are toast. What'smore, most of you have seen no nothin' yet of the extent of the carnage. An oh, the Palacio caravan is also coming to Pilerne. See - http://www.palacio.in/bonito.htm r
