Colamb villagers today warned Fomento mining company of Nandigram-like 
situation in case it tries to break the unit of the villagers and villagers 
unity with number of organisations including GAKUVED, Goa Foundation, and Goa 
Bachao Abhiyan.

This warning was served to the Fomentos today afternoon when the company 
official Joe J. Louis, Executive Director of both Infrastructure Logistics 
Private Limited - dealing with mining on behalf of Fomentos as well as Cidade 
de Goa - 5 star hotel of Fomentos visited Sulcorna Don Bosco Society and tried 
to initiate 'talk' with the couple of villagers along with a Salesian Priest.

Joe J. Louis, according to Hanumant Porob of Pissurlem has been the brain 
behind getting Hanumant arrested due to his opposition to mining in Sattari. 
Fomentos have invested their profits into Cidade de Goa from the huge gains 
from Pissurlem mines letting its pristine beauty, water sources and Agriculture 
go to dogs. Fomentos is one of the culprits along with Damodar Mangalji, 
Salgaokars and Sesa Goa.

Today Joe J Louis was campaigning against Goa Foundation, GAKUVED, and Goa 
Bachao Abhiyan (GBA) and asked the villagers to keep these organisations away 
and get into negotiation with the Company. These organisations according to Joe 
J Louis are funded by competing mining companies to oppose Fomentos.

Not only Mr. Louis does not want these organisations, he also does not want the 
rest of the villagers too for he knows that villagers angers will be enough for 
Fomento team to retreat back to Cidade de Goa.

Joe J Louis also informed the villagers that the son of his boss is all exited 
due to the negative publicity that has attracted its Colamb mines particularly 
on the Internet. He took name of Seby Rodrigues as amongst most hated by 
Fomentos.

Earlier South Goa Collector Gokuldas Naik faced wrath of the Colamb villagers 
on April 12 2008 when he was accused of siding with the mining company. 
Collector was told by Motesh Antao that Fomentos should carry on mining 
activity in Margao where its Public Hearing was conducted and not in Colamb. 
Collector was warned that in case Fomentos decides to resume Ore transportation 
then there is going to be law and order problem and he alone will be 
responsible for the same. Collector was questioned as to how in spite of Gram 
Sabha resolution opposing mining how can authorities permit this when Gram 
Sabha is supreme deciding authority.

Panicked Fomentos then decided to press emergency buttons and put their highest 
officials on diplomatic mission. he phone up Durgadas Gaonkar, President of 
GAKUVED, then he phoned up Sebastian Rodrigues but received no result from any 
of the calls. The day is not far when in case Fomentos does de-silt Colamb 
People's Agriculture then soon Silt will take its natural course into Cidade de 
Goa's Swimming Pools for tourists to enjoy with love from Goa's mines.
