Twiga, Are you really saying that people who don't have Goan ancestry will never be "Goans", even if they emigrate to Goa and own property there? I thought it was only "colored" immigrants to traditional western countries who had this chronic complaint that they would always be considered "outsiders" no matter how long they lived there. Are native Goans now becoming xenophobic? Perish the thought.
