That is > the TOTAL LACK of attention to a host of governance problems in the state Dear Philip: I do not live in Goa but occasionally visit. I have come to the conclusion that Goa has gone from one bad version of governance (Congress) to another bad version (BJP). Unfortunately, parties like Goa Suraj and Lok Shakti have a small impact though their goals are laudable. There is a growing tradition of writers (Ethel de Costa, Aires Rodrigues, Rajan Narayan, and others) who who serve a useful role. I am curious since you seem reasonable and based in Goa, as to what you think Goa needs in terms of good governance. Aires had posted 10 things on the net a few months ago, Fred Noronha posted 21 points a few years ago, and I think Mathany Saldanha had a list of 37 fix-it problems some years ago too. If I am not imposing on your time, perhaps you can share your thoughts with us. Regards, George
