Dear George Pinto
I beg to differ with you that our community in Goa is a ''do nothing people''.
I have seen them ''do plenty'' and can spend a considerable amount of time when
their activity involves ''feathering their own nests'' and the extraction of
money from others and amongst themselves. Which explains why there is one bank
per 14,000 people in Goa!
With Goa in the thick of the tourist season, at least Foo can take a break from
titching. Although an American greeting, our community is well versed in the
most
understood phrase on this planet which doesn't need any language or grammar
skills ''Show me the money''.
OHeraldo has been in existence before most of us were born and has a perfect
dialogue with the local community. As long as we understand the subject, it
doesn't matter about full stops, commas, nouns, pronouns, verbs, spellings,
etc. I actually miss the articles by the late C Keni on Goa Today which matched
and
understood the local village lingo.
The steamship company P&O used to ferry the English to India shores where the
language trickled down to Goa. Port side out, star board home (POSH in
short) was the preferred way of travel in cabin accommodation. There is no need
for any of us to get concerned. With four weeks to go to Christmas, you will
find POSH will make a come back when one is holding a feni chaser with
Kingfisher at the tavernas in Goa and at our festive events around the world.
