Can Gabe > provide us with more details, names etc? RESPONSE: We have a constitution. I don't believe the Directors are following what has been laid out, as to whom we can or cannot make gifts to. For instance if the Chief Mufti of Goa or for that matter the chief Hindu priest were to visit with the Directors, they are not empowered to gift these persons anything. If I was the President and my brother was the Pope and he visited the GOA, no matter how much I wished, I would not gift him anything on behalf of the GOA. I would make my own personal gift. The Directors ought to read our Constitution and follow it stringently, anything that might provoke raised eye brows, should be avoided. > Again, can Gabe provide us with more details of this > assault and was the guilty person a board member? Was > the assault the result of excess alcohol consumption? RESPONSE: The matter is now in the Courts I believe. I am realiably informed that the Courts have acted accordingly because of the incident that occurred. Again the Directors know they have to follow our Constitution, which demands that they summon the person cocnerned to explain himself. If the Courts have gone against this person already then I believe the Directors have no option but to follow suit - after all the Law of the land should remain supreme. Whether there was alcohol involved or not does not matter, the Police use this coercion to enforce orderliness. This same person had complained to the Police when the Association had a Club House. The Police threatened to revoke our Bar license at that time. Cheers, Gabe Menezes. > > Marlon > life member of no goan organization > > > Cheers, > > > > Gabriel V Menezes.
