Many thanks for the clarification re the "venerable poster." Further, it is
absolutely true that large numbers from other parts of India, and
foreigners, have increasingly arrived in Goa, thus changing the social
landscape/structure. It is also true that there is much sense of resentment
from many locals. I also think that there is little that the locals can do
to stop the mainstreaming of Goa into India especially when the Goans have a
history of migration to other parts of India and indeed other parts of the
world.

Cornel,
I cannot claim to speak for the venerable poster below, but given
the recent concern raised over the number of non-goans flooding
Goa, her statement would appear to be allegorically couched.

PS You can't have been to Goa recently to say no one speaks Konkani any
more!

I hardly recognize the place I spent my
childhood....and no one speaks Konkani anymore - what's that all
about?
