Tony,
Thank you for your very interesting contribution about Tanzania. I had
travelled all over that country over the years when it was still Tanganyika,
and Zanzibar (which I also knew), had yet to join it. Your article brought
back many happy memories of the many places I had come to know well
including Mt. Kilimanjaro of course.

However, as an Indian of Goan origin, I am puzzled by the distinction you
make in the wording of your Subject. You call it "Indians and Goans in East
Africa". The imputation in that title is that you were writing about one
group called Indians and another called Goans. It would be helpful if you
could please clarify the seeming confusion, for me, on this point. Would you
likewise be using a title, say, about Indians and the Sikhs or the Indians
and the Punjabis?
Many thanks,
Cornel
PS I do know about the Indian groups in East Africa who had Portuguese
passports, until many opted for alternative nationalities when independence
became imminent in the East African territories.
