On June 21, 2002 Rene Barreto relayed the following from a message from GoaNow sent by Joel D'Souza:
> > We at GoaNOW wish you all success and happiness on GOA DAY. > > One feels great to feel that NRI Goans feel so proud to be Goans and to > celebrate that great feeling wholeheartedly while they live abroad. We > would, however, wish that they could, some day or other, sooner or later, > display this warm feeling in the land of their ancestors--Goa. Of course, > it would take some effort and sacrifice, which, however, would be really > worth considering the NRIs' limitless love for Maimdes Goa. Moreover, those > of us, left here in the eastern paradise or vale of tears, for one reason > or other, would also feel inspired by knowing that her sons and daughters > overseas care so much for Goa. > > Cheers. > > Joel. > May I ask Joel why he refers only to "NRI Goans". What about all "PIO Goans" who are not citizens of India but love and cherish their 'maimdes' Goa and are always willing and ready to make that 'maimdes' known to as many people as possible in the countries where they live and to contribute towards its development and wellbeing and towards the conservation of its heritage?
