Hi Newton & Vivian:
Thanks for endorsing what is true; I am glad that the informed Goans who
know the facts have spoken!
Certainly the Goan diaspora know this, and should give due credit where it
rightly belongs.
Regards,
Joe Vaz

Joe,
You have "hit the nail on it's head!".
I fully endorsed your comments. The point in
contention should be, not who
is the originator but who works hard to make the
event famous and reach each
and every corner of the diasporia where the Goans
have found their eventual
aboard.>

Thanks Joe Vaz. I second your views that the
credit for World Goa Day
should go to Rene Barreto who tirelessly and
persistently promoted this idea.
After it was up and running, many have claimed to
be the "originators" of
World Goa Day and the debate can go on ad
infinitum. This argument can be
compared to adoptive parents who are the true
parents of the child, regardless
of the biological birth mother.
Rene first mooted the idea of World Goa Day at
a meet we had in Toronto in
October 1993. Others may have had the idea at
different times and maybe even
earlier than that date. But it is Rene Barreto
who has tirelessly promoted
this idea, which has now caught on. Let us give
credit where it is due.
