The Final Curtain - a tribute to Minguel Rod By �Magno" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Response: Excellent article on this Great Goan talent. Unfortunately Minguel Rod is not the exception. Most Goan talent that is great happens not because of Goan patronage and support but inspite of lack of sponsorship or encouragement. It is because Goan talent is self-made that when they bloom they are exceptional. Of course many do not have the stamina and the will-power to pull oneself through with their own boot straps. And this may specially apply to our youth today. Goan community leaders unfortunately are so caught up in their own little personal world, that they do not take the time to look at the big picture and the future of their community.
