And to think of it that CK was the incharge of the NRI cell in Goa, at one time?
All i can say is the Arabs never came to Goa to call Goans to come and
work for them. It is the person who gets lured and choses to work in
the Gulf and forfeit many a previledges in his home country. All that
glitters is not gold, it never is and will never be.
If the situation in Goa was good and jobs were given on merit and not
sold out to outsiders for a price, Goans would have preferred to be
there in their own land with their loved ones.>
jc's response:
Extremely well written and Intellectually honest post.
My only addendum is as follows:
1. These hard working Gulf Goans have maintained their families and
the businesses(possre) in Goa for several decades.
2. These Gulf Goans are the true heroes of Goa. They toiled in a
distant and inhospitable land to help their own families make it.
3. Chandrakant Keni would NOT probably know that the Arabs did not
have to employ Goans. There are tons of people applying for jobs
there.
Here ...some another xenophobic gem from Chandrakant Keni - a alleged
lover of Goa and Konkani who worked for a pro-Merger Marathi paper and
consistently supported a proMerger party in Goa - followed by a
schizoid anti-Marathiwadi post.
