To Goanet - For now, the party is off thanks to the villagers of Carona-Aldona. "Quality development" - in India this means you get neither quality nor development - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-1.jpg The brown and the green - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-2.jpg Have concrete, will pour. http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-3.jpg Have hills, will cut. http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-4.jpg >From the construction site, looking uphill - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-5.jpg >From the construction site, looking downhill - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-6.jpg An unusual pedestal cross with a nimbus, in the mangrovesnear the Carona ferry point - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-cross.jpg The Dilliwallahs and the other Indians boors are coming. Coming to destroy the serenity in our villages and with it our lives. http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/carona-village.jpg r Pls see below for Aldona and Goa Velha. ------------------------------ Message: 11 Date: Thu, 1 May 2008 19:41:25 -0700 (PDT) From: "Rajan P.

Very soon we Goans will be trespassers in our own land. http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-2.jpg The usual 'permissions' from the TCP Dept etc - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-3.jpg View from the highway: the concrete turd rises - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-4.jpg The view beyond the fence - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-5.jpg The entire ecology of what is an 'agar' is in peril - http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-6.jpg "Holiday (at) Home - The Palacio Waterfront." Wasn't this once a shrimp processing plant? http://www.parrikar.org/images/samples/palacio-7.jpg Goa Velha will soon be awash in outsiders. Those responsible for this destruction of Goan land, Goan landscape, the character of our villages, and with it our Goan identity, are criminals. Either Goans rise now in rebellion or we are toast. What'smore, most of you have seen no nothin' yet of the extent of the carnage. An oh, the Palacio caravan is also coming to Pilerne. See - http://www.palacio.in/bonito.htm r
