Fred,
Is it your view that NRI visitors to Goa are "welcomed" only as dollar-spenders and that generally the locals seek to make a fast buck out of them?
And/or that the Goa projects NRIs undertake are only public relations exercises to assuage their guilt?
Cheers,
Eddie

Gilbert, You're presuming that (i) the US marines were "welcomed" as guests rather than dollar-spenders in Goa (ii) the Goans were great hosts, going by what the PR writer attached to the US Navy put out (iii) the class-room painting act was something more than a public relations exercise by a military force which has earned a lot of criticism and dismay, if not disgust, for its actions around the globe.
