I hope cyber-Goans residing aboard (for long) do not have the audacity to write about / define the opinions of Goans residing in Goa. It is the native Goans in cyberspace that (should) write about the natives; and they should be sure they are reporting on the opinions of the majority of the natives and not conveying their personal biases or the preferences of their paymasters.
Perhaps because of this, the opinion polls carried on cyber-Goa may not reflect the true sentiment of native Goans. Your suggestion of a discussion on the "big disconnect between cyber Goans and native Goans" is worth persuing it. Kind Regards, GL Philip Thomas By any chance did you mean to say "cyber" Goans instead of "native" Goans at the end of this particular line? Why indeed is there such a big disconnect between cyber Goans and native Goans? Might be worth discussing on goanet.
