V= I happened to follow the discussion on the 'salwar kameez' controversy. I have a few questions for Floriano: FL= I am glad someone chose to ask these relevant questions. It is high time. Thank you Vivek. And I am going to answer each one of them the best way I can. V= How does one decide what is against Goa or the goan way of life? In fact what exactly is the goan way of life? FL: 1. Goans not getting proper and effective education in Goa to start with. If you read this week's Goan observer cover stolry "Goan Kids can't count", you will know what I mean. 2. Professional degrees from Goa University not being recognised elsewhere in India and the rest of the world. Goans not getting jobs in Goa even if qualified due to rampant corruption. Jobs go to mostly outsiders who are required to cough-up which Goans cannot. 3. Goans migrating to the western countries by selling their houses and properties. 4. There is no law and order in Goa to talk about. 5. The erosion of Goa's comunidades. How effective were the Comunidade organizations can be seen with zero agriculture in Goa with comunidades destroyed by the Tenancy Act of Bandodkar, enforced by the Congress in Goa. 6. 7. 100 You want me to go on?? V:= Is Goa Suraj Party the custodian of Gon rights? FL= Yes, Goa Su-Raj party is the custodian of Goan rights. Why the hell not? I am a Goan. I think Goan. I live Goan. So why not? Who else is fighting for Goan rights? The Congress? The BJP? The NCP? ( except that one new arrival loose foot in the NCP who has changed many parties is fighting against foreigners purchasing properties in Goa). Goa is the transit point for international drug cartels. Who has created it? Goa Su-Raj? Our public places stink and garbage is dumped on highways. Why does Floriano Lobo only has to write a letter to the High Court to be converted into a PIL? . Where are the other custodians of Goa??? Sleeping? Maybe you can say that. But Goa Su-Raj is up and about and it will do only what it possible for it to do. I always tell people who ask me "why don't you expand?" And I retort back "To do what?" "clean people's backsides?" and I send them packing with this line "Goa Su-raj Party will not be used by the people in the sense that it will not roast like an earthworm on the hot tarred road to show that it is working for the people" What I mean is that we have given the Goan people a system of governance. Let them take it or leave it. It will be fine by us either way. V= Does GoaSuraj Party represent all the sections of Goan society? FL= You define to me which are the sections of Goan society that politics do not represent. Do you mean Christians? Does politics not affect them? They must be represented by Congress, the NCP?? You mean Hindus? Politics does not affect them? Or only the BJP and MGP -Shiv Sena politics must represent them? YOu mean OBCs, STs and SCs? Actually politics has screwed these sections, in that, it has more than affected them. These sections have become proprietory vote banks of certain political parties. FYI Goa Su-Raj is in serious politics. Not serious politiking, if you know the difference. V= How would one go about reversing the decisions of the Government? FL: Simple. Scrap anti-Goan , anti development legislations outright, Tenancy Act and the likes in the Legislative Assembly. V= Is any migrant vote less important than a niz goenkaars vote? FL= I want to know what axactly do you understand by a migrant vote. Goa Su-Raj Party does not consider outsiders (migrants) who have settled in Goa and who have purchased properties in Goa as migrants. They are as much Goan as niz Goemkars. When we say migrants, we mean migrant labourers who live in jopadpattis and slums created by our politicians as vote bank, only brought into vote (mostly). Do you get the idea? And you want them to decide what goverment Goans should get through their paid votes? Vivek, you must think again. At this point let me tell you that Goa Su-Raj Party is on record of writing to the Parliamentary Commission on Electoral Reforms that National Parties must not be allowed to contest the local Assembly elections. That parties registered as national parties should only contest parliamentary elections leaving the assembly elections to the local regional parties of the state. In this case only efficient people from states will go to the parliament as MP only to look at 'as a whole, India's affairs' rather than brokering for favours for their respective states in the parliament. Also, MPs should be conversant with world affairs. If this is done, there our national parliament will gain respect and honour it deverves rather than having our MPs getting caught on cameras taking bribes. (The cited comunication is on our website under Comments on News reports at www.goasu-raj.org sometime in the month of April, 2006 if you care to go thro' it). V= Are all national parties CHOR FL: To this question, the answer is emphatic 'YES'. The national parties, without distinction, mostly are chors of the first order. Congress ? Yes! The Chor' videa of the Congress started with Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru when he absolved Krishna Menon's (defence Minister ) sins of ommission and commission w.r.t. the scam relating to the purchase of JEEPs for the military. If Nehru had to sack him or strip him there and then, Congress would not be on the CHOR PATH today without looking back. The BJP? Have you read about the BJP's bright boy Mahajan ? How he went for the ends without bothering about the means? inorder to collect funds for the party? CHORS?? NCP??? How come Maharashtra's strong man Sharad Pawar not bailing out Vidharba's farmers when they are committing suicides in hundreds??? Now Manmohan Singh has earmarked 3000 odd crores as relief to these farmers. How many crores with actually go to them? I bet you a dollar that suicides will go on but the crores will be going in the wrong pockets. If the national parties have not drained Goa through bulging suitcases and using Goa as their holidaying destination to have fun, then you may call them honest saints. Explain how Margaret Alva is having a posh estate at Dona Paula or how Ex-Goa Desk in charge Mr. Chenitala is a crore patti. Have you heard of Congress Union Minister Suk Ram? Crores were found in his house. Now he is the CM or something of some state. You want me to name others? V= Or Communal FL= What is BJP? What is Shiv Sena? What is Goa's MGP? And you think Congress is secular?? Who demolished or alllowed to be demolished the Babri Masjid? Not Congress? Not Narashima Rao? V=-by default are all regional parties with 'in state' high commands automatically honest? FL= I am talking of Goa Su-Raj Party only. It is a registered party with its own constitution and its Road Map. We are a regional Party of Goa. We are not concerned whether other regional parties of Goa or wherever are honest or CHORS. It is for you to open your eyes and see for yourself. The system of governance we have devised cannot be and will not be a chor system. The only thing that can happen is that no one would want to touch it. That is all. Why? Because this system will not allow bullshit to be showelled on to the Party's head. There are internal constitutional guarantees provided. > - vivek _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
