This young boy of 6 years asked his friend 'how old is your father'? The reply was 'he is as old as I am'. 'How is that possible'? said the other, to which the reply was 'because he became a father only after I was born'. Pretty logical but wrong. So is this damned rethoric debate about Goa India and Portuguese. I tell you that we Goans have nothing to do with Portugal (and also wished we had nothing to do with the other too). We want our land our rights as Goans to be employed first in any government existing vacancy/jobs etc. My dear Goans/MOgal Goenkarano, we need to be more mature and aggresive towards profitting from such situations. And how is that.....? Master the weapon of education. For this is the only sword that will help the upliftment and our fight towards Goa. Goans by far are adequated to living a good lifestyle be it Hindu Muslim or Christian. They all have mastered and embibed in eating good and merry making. Unlike the other community (am referring to Gujurs, Sindis and others in other Indian states) who say they have feasted if treated themselves out in restaurants over the week ends or otherwise everyday is papad, bindi aur sabji (vegetable I suppose). Now back to square one, as someone who said this earlier, we have to bear the brunt for what Goa is now utterly because of us GOANS, OUR MLAs, OUR POLITICIANS (we have elected them knowing what they are) OUR INDUSTRIALISTS, OUR ADMINISTRATORS. We need to clean our homeland first with relevant and appropriate authorities before we indulge chanting unwanted slogans. So lets stop here and get our hands in cleaning our dirty linen and hold on to the land that we all are so fond of and much spoken on this net.
