George:

Since we have been informed that all letters emails to various groups were drafted for Rene’s signature, it can be seen that the Rene’s acknowledgement was well scripted as well. As the script (acknowledgement) rightly points out —it is “TIME” dedicated that is a valuable contribution. My post is simply saying that Rene has spent relentless hours (perhaps more than most that now claim a stake in founding/propagating the Goa Day). This is NOT meant to take any credit away from anyone, except to acknowledge the FACT that Rene’s effort in this endeavor has been paramount and therefore deserves DUE CREDIT.

In fact, credit goes to everyone in the Goan diaspora who provided support to Rene in his effort in forming their own groups in their respective countries and organizing/celebrating the Goa Day, —without which the event would NOT have been a success. Therefore, in the wide world of the Goan diaspora there is no denying that significant credit deservedly goes to Rene Barreto.

Regards,
Joe Vaz

PS: You’ve taken your share of the credit through your own recurring publicity? So what’s the gripe?

My personal view on the “World Goan Day” effort and bringing it to every continent and country was that of Rene Barreto. It is not so much as to who “conceived the idea” for the Goa Day, —but more so who nurtured, tendered and propagated it to the ends of the globe.
