It is also a day where Goans world-wide join in SOLIDARITY to celebrate being a GOAN ! This year on GOADAY thousands of Goans will remind themselves that we need to work to preserve our Goan culture, music, history, language, cuisine, and art for our children and the non-Goan community. Just as we have learnt and improved from non-Goans, they too can learn from us whether they are European, American, Japanese, African etc. We have a lot to offer the world and should not be ashamed or shy away from our own resplendent culture. We are as equal and adept as any other people, and we should be proud to demonstrate that pride in our actions. Life has been very good for some of us, and we should count our blessings and thank God for it. Let us try and make our GOAN World a better place for the underprivileged and those not as fortunate to experience our style of living or material happiness. We can accomplish this by genuinely sharing our bounty & blessings. Let GOADAY be a beacon of light, which will be our motivation or driving force throughout the year, and for the rest of our lives. Let us make this our motto, "Proud To Be a Goan." and live up to that motto. GOADAY this year is being celebrated in a BIGGER way than ever before. Goans in London have followed the example of Goans in Portugal and Pakistan and formed an Alliance of Goan associations. They are planning one of the biggest Goan events the capital has ever seen. There are many of Goans world wide who have also indicated their interest in celebrating this great Goan event. On this occasion, many community related projects will be launched and more emphasis will be put into Goan community voluntary services all over the GOAN WORLD.
