Traffic jams, road blockades and ear bursting music to entertain the world while goans are made to pay for someone else's fun and entertainment. Leave aside the assault on the environment with crores of rupees going up in smoke and noise on that midnight. With booze, drugs and sex free flowing in the coastal belt, God alone knows how many addicts and HIV victims have been produced on that fateful nite of 1 January 2011. God alone knows how many wives and children have been subjected to pain and misery to satisfy that goan greed for money. Event managers, entertainers, taxi and airline operators and hotel owners may be smiling with the huge bucks raked in from someone's vices and cannibalistic desires. What do goans get? Nothing but curses on their generations for being silent collaborators in this mindless orgy. -Soter --------------------------------------------------------------------------- NEW BOOK: 'PATRIOTISM IN ACTION: Goans in Indias Defence Services' Copies now available at: GOA: Literati (2277740), Other India (2263306), Broadway (6647038), Mandovi (2427904), Noel DSilva & Associates (9823120454 / 9096781714), Confidant / Golden Heart Emp (2732450), David & Co (2730326), Vardaan (9527463684) SERV / RETD Def Offrs in Goa: O/o Sainik Co-op Hse Bldg Sty, Def Col, Porvorim (2417288) MUMBAI: David & Co (22019010) PUNE: Manneys (26131683), Popular (25678327) BENGALURU: Narayan (22865800) DELHI: Ritana (24617278) ONLINE (worldwide delivery): http://www.ritanabooks.com, http://goa1556.goa-india.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
