------------------------------------------------------- CONVENTION OF THE GOAN DIASPORA FROM GOA INTO THE WORLD Lisbon, Portugal June 15-17, 2007 Details at: http://www.casadegoa.org -------------------------------------------------------
Elections apart... I dont see any wrong in people parading with Portuguese Flags If India was a participant and Goans support Portugal now thats an issue. which happened earlier in Bombay when some of the Minorites supported Pakis. Indians in the Caribean supported the Lankans when Team India took a ealry flight home. Former French colonies in the middle east speak in french although Arabic is thier mother tongue. So do African nations the reason for this is these counties are sucessfull and most dream to migrate in these countries. We dont dream of going to Mongolia or the kuwaitees wont wave Iraqi flags will they. Elections ... Ultimately people decide for themselves communal and noncommunal leaders Regards, MARSH mendonca. Sunith Velho wrote: Frederick, Parrikar had a lot of young members of the Catholic community campaigning for him this election as well because he admitted that he had made certain errors in judgement and most people think that he has no direct hand in what is perpetrated by some supporters of his party. To many Ponjekars(including myself), Parrikar as a person is no more communal than Churchill or Dinar Tarcar. ------------------------------------------------------- Goanet recommends, and is proud to be associated with, 'Domnic's Goa' - A nostalgic romp through a bygone era.
