Never a bean off our sole coffee tree in Goa, the birds got the little buds
at sundown !
Thanks to Ven for intervening, and the 'scan' on my mental gyrations. You
did try, Venni, but I am not able to give our friend in Britain the time i
cannot spare, and i am not the windmill that confronts his lance. The last
time around, our 'Sancho' diverted a very busy Santoshbab into working on
his epic, of which we am very proud, but Sant probably wants to pound me for
the provocation. Piety went to school when it was headed by Ildeafonso, and
the Farias and Nobays probably revive unpleasant memories, but his campaign
today can be compaired to Russian/Polish anti-semitism -- there are no Jews
left to villify ! For better or for worse, few Brahmin priests, bhatcars or
overseers survive today, and sadly, their daughters are being filched by
caucasians.
I was numbed when i saw the Vietnam figures on Goanet. Some of it reflects
the activities of their people who have returned home after a stint in the
West. I believe the same phenomenon is at visible in India. Mozambique, with
its Durban based Parsee and Gujarathi planters, was once synonymous with
cashew nut production.
The Quilon family are Pillai, their face to us was Rajan Pillai, the London
based prodigal son. He further cemented the seventy year ties with
Planters-National Biscuit ( Nabisco-US ), and was, shall we say trustee, to
a one hundred million dollar Ross Johnson stash in Singapore. Ross was the
RJR honcho, and the 'barbarian' of the bestselling 'Barbarian at the Gates'.
The Britannia acquisition was a joint deal, but PIllai double crossed, and
Ross bought a fraud conviction, in Sigapore. Rajan fled to India, only to
become a bigger target: seized when he refused to play, it is believed the
political price was fifty million, he was allowed to die in a prison sell of
a mysterious bleed - who can forget the pictures that were published in
Delhi. Venn, your buddy Stan had a role there, write me direct ! Eric.
