Thank you Marshall Mendonca for your balanced view regarding migrants in Goa. The problem with lots of Goans living outside Goa, is that they want Goa to be frozen like in 1961. Rajan Parrikar did a wonderful power-point presentation on Rape of Goa. Who is responsible we Goans. All the

This in response to Ana Maria de Souza-Goswami. I know you have not been raised in Goa but you have lived in Goa for a number of years, why have not attempted to learn our Mai bhas. Perhaps your employees (servants) could have inter reacted with you better if you spoke in their own language

Aye Madame Goaswamy, it appears your curious, repetitive and tiresome line on 'we are Endian...' etc, etc...is getting annoying! Yours truly is Goan first, and Goan last. I am nothing but Goan all the way, its the way I feel and very proudly so. Its my identity and carry it proudly, our
