Thanks to all who gave their valuable advice. I wil ook into the suggestions. I would also like a list of probable persons who are on each side of the debate, and possible their email addresses. In the overall context, I know of some persons in the diaspora who are anti-Indian. The views of those in the diaspora don't will not matter greatly. In Goa, some members of the clergy were clearly in favour of the Portuguese. So also, many leading members or so-called "public intellectuals" of the top layer of Goan society were largely pro-Portuguese and some of the them penned articles, if my memory serves me correctly. The views will help me frame my proposal and why I need to work on such an issue. I will definitely plan a trip to Goa, but I need to know who to meet on each side of the issue. In the current climate, you have strong views of some who don't want any relevance to Portuguese rule. On the other hand, there are many who wants traces of Portuguese impact on social and cultural matters to remain as they are. Eugene Correia
