George, did you miss Dr Anjali Monteiro's video film on Dharavi?
Apparently, there just might be a lot more of humanity there than in
parts of Goa :-) FN
PS: Let's not forget, we are the creators of our own Dharavis, though
we might be more careful in covering our tracks...

 Rajan,

 Keep posting. Goans around the world have been asleep too long and need to 
 see the devastation
 happening to the land of their ancestors. To be fatigued, one has to have 
 done something.
 Hopefully, your posts on this most important matter will motivate Goans to 
 wake up and do
 something.  Otherwise, Goa will look like downtown Dharavi (Bombay slum).

[Goanet] Photos Outrage fatigu

2007-11-14 Thread Rajan P. Parrikar

To Goanet -

The following shot was taken yesterday standing on
the ferry from Ribandar to Divar looking towards the
Kadamba plateau.  A shaved hillside  ongoing
construction, suggesting a mini Aldeia de Goa
in the making -

I now hesitate to post any more photographs for
fear of inducing outrage fatigue on Goanet.  When
you see sights such as this day after day, you become
inured to these atrocities and tend to tune off.

I once again call on the GBA and other like minded
organizations to come out against this anti-Goan
government and demand its dismissal.  Start out by

opposing IFFI with a call for a mass morcha on the
inaugural day.


Whether BJP or Manohar Parrikar benefits from this
ought not to be part of GBA's calculation.  Since
neither party has shown itself committed to the
cause of Goa, our intent should be to make life
unstable and miserable for whosoever is in power,
and apply  the same standards of accountability
to all of them.  To pre-empt charges of partisanship,
the GBA should declare at the outset that it is
party-blind, that it will target the party or coalition
in power regardless of its label.

Warm regards,
