-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Frederick Noronha(FN) The only problem is that with Goa's lack of vital infrastructure that matters, it would currently mean that every convention would require (i) the closing down of the Kala Academy or its shifting out of its venue, if only for a few days (ii) pedestrianising, under duress not choice, the main throughfare of Panjim, DB Road. Have you seen the state of the toilets in the Kala Academy? There's better than those in many international airports! And I don't mean Sahar ;-) ======================================= I do not feel that it is necessary to close the DB road for any convention - small, medium, large or super-large. It was a mistake closing the road for IFFI as it caused chaos in surrounding areas and put peoples backs up. I believe that the reason why the road is closed is because of security rather than logistic considerations of a paranoid CM. I also gather that Amond Kanth the former DGP did not agree with the need to close the road and that this was one of the reasons for his removal. The expenditure on the toilets at the Kala, Inox and GMC is justified because for the first time we have urinals in the public sector that are automatically flushed at regular intervals. But is it effective? Take a walk to the rear of stage of the Inox complex and you will have to hold your breath to avoid the stench! Cheers, Eddie --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
