MOPA - SWOT The SWOT (Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis on MOPA will be done by the firm from Montreal Canada specially hired to do the study. I am sure after the report is submitted it will be examined / analyzed / dissected by the Goans (near and far) and their elected representatives at the State and at the Center.
Unquestionably the project will have some costs / weakness. Progress always has a price to pay. But so does lack of growth. The airport being a service industry/sector will not generate positive revenues. If it contributes to increased tourism, it will add positively to Goa's economy. While many Goans on cyberspace complain about tourism in Goa, it is interesting to see the recent news from the tourist resorts damaged by the Tsunami. The pleas from the locals: What they need most is for tourists to come back - Now! "You don't know what you've got until it's gone". Regards!
