Hi Jose Colaco I will keep this reply short, but first, I crave the moderator's indulgence to please retain the whole of your response below for the simple reason that it provides the complete answer to your latest question "would you please direct me to a post wherin Jose Colaco has singularly opposed to having more toilets made available in Goa?"
Compared to the posts from me, Eugene, Luisa, Mario, Jerry, Camillo and others, yours is the singular voice of non support for toilets, as well as of jocular derision (in the 5 points below) for the idea, and those who support the idea for toilets. I understand your oppositional logic very clearly but you cannot dispute the fact that you were the only person in this discussion who did not support the suggestion for more toilets to meet the needs of migrant workers. Simultaneously, and very oddly, you argued that Goa was a toilet. Finally, if you do want to raise further questions, please do so, but do not tangentially switch to something totally unrelated to the current post issue 'on the table' i.e. about the need for toilets for migrant workers as well as for others in Goa.
