I was very sad to hear that GOA TODAY, a magazine I've been a life subscriber of ever since the days of my dear friend, Lambert Mascarenhas, is to cease publication later this month. A sad day especially for us, overseas Goans, who eagerly looked forward to each monthly issue. While I accept that all good things must come to an end, I must close by mentioning the founder Editor of GOA TODAY - my dear friend(Lambert Mascarenhas) who, despite initial financial problems steered this magazine through sometimes stormy waters. Difficult to know how many overseas Goans responded to his appeal for support when the going was tough. Anyway, thanks also to the current Editor, my friend, Vinayak Naik in whose offices I spent some time many moons ago discussing a variety of subjects. Wish you well, Vinayak.
