Subject: PROUD GOANS of KARACHI .. assembled on a single platform ! CELEBRATES WORLD GOA DAY 2003 IN KARACHI - PAKISTAN
Gilbert Lawrence writes: Congratulations to the Karachi and Pakistani Goans and Debra Santamaria for hosting such a grand WGD event. I reviewed the e-pictures and was very impressed with cultural program and stage performance. The Goan community in Pakistan needs to be complimented more because (my impression may be wrong) they organized the celebration in spite of the tensions and difficulties in that part of the world. We in the Goan Diaspora community across the world look forward to reading a summary of the Goan community in Karachi-Pakistan, their successes and challenges. They certainly maintain a long and successful tradition of Goans in that part of the world. Regards, Gilbert Lawrence Debra Santamaria writes: The Karachi Goan Association witnessed an unprecedented event as the Goans of Karachi were entertained by the Goinkars Own Academy on Saturday 25th October 2003 as they celebrated WORLD GOA DAY in Karachi, Pakistan. It was a wonderful sight wherein Goans assembled on a single platform. Sincere thanks and appreciation for Rene Barreto's tremendous and successful efforts not only for starting this universal day but ensuring it took hold and keeps flourishing............ ########################################################################## # Send submissions for Goanet to [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # PLEASE remember to stay on-topic (related to Goa), and avoid top-posts # # More details on Goanet at http://joingoanet.shorturl.com/ # # Please keep your discussion/tone polite, to reflect respect to others # ##########################################################################
