-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Wishing all Goanetters | | a Prosperous | | and | | Happy New Year - 2006 | | Goanet - http://www.goanet.org | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following editorial from O Heraldo today should be read and absorbed by all Non-Resident-Goans. If you don't live in Goa, by all means express your opinion, but leave what is going on there to those who do - they obviously have a committment as well as personal stake that is far superior to yours. We have a saying in America, "Put your money where your mouth is", which fits perfectly with this editorial. > STOP TALKING > John Fitzgerald Kennedy once said, "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." > Similarly can we ask our Non-Resident Goans, who keep attending these Gommant Vishwas Sammelan's and demanding more and more concessions, what have they done for Goa? Who are these "Non- Resident Goans"? Can anyone honestly stand up and say that they are willing to do something for Goa without any strings attached to it? And can someone honestly say that they are willing to give up their lifestyle, their foreign passport and that way of life to come back and settle down in Goa? > So NRG's, please stop talking and show us your sincerity and then perhaps the government may do something for you. >
