Pace of aggression??? Did I hear right?? Oh Cedrico, I am not sure if you are aware of Goa's ground realities yet.
Political aggression is directly proportional to how much money is extorted from every source plus more and spent on the promotion of the Party. In order words people want to belong to a party if they are well looked after. You know what I mean. And Goa Su-Raj is built not to do just that. Otherwise Goa would have one more party and that would not make a difference. However, I must confide in you that Su-Raj is not bothered whether it will RISE at all. But I must reassure you that it will maintain its static position, if need be, but it will never SET. Moreover, the job of making it rise is left to the people of Goa. Or else they can go hunting elsewhere, Maybe in Taleigao, Betalbatim, Varca etc. BTW the right type of aggression was initiated by GBA. But it went to sleep putting cold water on people's expectations. I'll tell you a small story why Goa Su-Raj will not rise on its own and why people should fly it like a kite up in the sky. One of our executive members came to me once and said. "Floriano, we need money yaar. If we have money we can do a lot of things. So I push a paper and pen to him. "What is this?" he says. "write down what you want to do" I say. "Write?" he says. "You are mad". "With money we can do a thousand things to promote the party". "Well Mr." I say. " At the starting of the Party ,you had said that you will bring in 1000 life members. 1000 x 300 would be 300000 (3 lacs). That is a lot of money. So far you have not brough in a single life member, remember? Then I told him what would happen if there was a lot of money with the Party. You would come one day and say "Floriano, I need to pay my mortgage tomorrow. I will return the sum in a month's time. That you don't want to break your fixed deposit for nothing. If I say no, you will go about telling every one that Floriano wants to eat all the money. If I give you, you will not only not return it but when asked for it, we will stop coming to the party office. No Sir. Again, If I give you, I will also be tempted to use some myself. And sooner than later, all the money will be gone and the 1000 things will be lying dried up like dried fish. You write what you want to do with that money and that money shall be raised. Until such financing does not come, we shall not do the thing. In fact we have lost this particular executive member from that day onward. Sorry tale, isn't it? Cedrico??? And you were asking if at all Su-Raj will rise?

As for houses like UGDP..they have lost their voter base in the south, hence only Babush at Taleigao, definately not on the party banner could win the elections as the lone UGDP babu. for the records, babush could be elected on any ticket and even as an independent. The people of margao know the types of anacleto and radharao as people who flow as the wind blows and hence, the bigger national parties have been able to kick them aside and see that regional parties like that never ook strong root. I am sorry the pace at which your party is going....either you will be left out or the suraj might never rise... And its very easy to do post mortems....what Goa needs is an urgent cure cause it is ailing.... I wish you well in your campaign to cleanse goa, but i guess its time you change your pace of agression and also the approach. Regds Cedric da costa Dubai-uae **************************************
