Without a shot in the infrastructure of Goa's "cities", they will become, if they haven't already, "unsustainable urban habitats". I sincerely hope, when the proposed infrastructural investment becomes available, partisan politics, corruption and citizens resistant to change, don't impede the real progress that we so desperately need in Goa. selma ____________________________________________________________________________________ Food fight?
