I wonder how many Goanetters or their forefathers were taken by the brits as 
coolies or indentured labour to East Africa?
BC
Soon after Portuguese conquered Goa, it became the main port to trade slaves 
brought from Portuguese enclave from Africa.? The slaves were shipped from Goa 
to Ceylon and as far away to Macao.? The Mhamai Kamats (whose ancestral house 
is just behind Governor's residence in Panjim) were one of the main slave 
traders in Goa.?
