I would like to nominate A. Veronica Fernandes to start a committee of "sincere
and dedicated
persons" for this statue ("to bell the cat" himself). In true Goan fashion,
those who suggest an
idea should execute the idea and not wait for someone else. Since he is not
happy with the use of
funds collected for other programs, he and his committee can personally oversee
the use of funds.
A. Veronica Fernandes you can do it, make it happen - a man of action.
Regards,
George

1. These days lot of statements is made in support of erecting of a statue of
the late Dr. Jack
Sequeira who is called the father of Opinion Poll. It is a good suggestion but
who will bell the
cat?
2. In the light of what I said above I feel some very sincere and dedicated
persons in Goa who
worked tirelessly for the victory of Opinion Poll should come forward and make
a committee to
raise funds for the building of a monument of Dr. Jack de Sequeira.
3. Above I said sincere and dedicated persons should come forward and make a
committee to raise
funds for the erection of Dr. Jack de Sequeiras statue because in the past we
had a very bitter
experience of relying unknowingly on chor & bamtte who duped us of our money
we raised to crate
funds for so many good causes of Goa. For example, for Konkani Novem Goem Daily
Paper we from
Kuwait itself donated about 5 lakhs of rupees and yet it failed....For Cancer
Hospital we donated
about 15 - 20 lakhs and yet there is no Cancer Hospital of Goans. Where our
money gone?
