Dears,
In view of Floriano Lobo's clarification on behalf of CITIZENS' INITIATIVE and
Roland Francis stating the rules of moderation, it has been agreed that Prof.
M. S. Kamat will remain the Moderator.
Floriano is working on the confirmation of speakers from the Goa University
affiliated colleges. The opening speakers FOR and AGAINST the conversion of Goa
University into a Central University have been identified. Both of them have
been associated with the Goa University for a number of years.
The format is being worked out. There will be time and space for audience
interaction. Media coverage is being confirmed, too.
It has been confirmed that this is NOT a Goa SuRaj Party [GSRP] or a Goa
Environmental Action Group [GEAG] event, though Floriano is associated with
both these bodies. I am a bit touchy about associating my name with groups
that, though they may be good, are something I subscribe to.
Please feel free to express your views. The conversion is NOT just about
EDUCATION. It is also about LAND, Local PARTICIPATION in Decision making, and
the future of the State. It concerns each one of us who is alive today ....or
yet to be born. Make sure you do not mortgage your future generations just
because you cared .... a damn!
Let not the rains deter you from attending. The venue is indoors ...IMB Hall,
Panaji. Just park your vehicles near Azad Maidan, as the entrance of IMB is
perennially flood prone ...though it is just a few metres from the Mandovi
River into which the rain water must drain out.
Mog asundi.

Subject: Re: [Goanet] Goanet] Questions to Prof. Kamat and Citizen's
Initiative
Miguel suggests:
[Dr. G.N. Mishra, Fr. Antimo Gomes, Sr. Rita Fonseca, Dr. Shigurkar
or one of the former Acting Vice-Chancellors of Goa University [Dr. Adi
Doctor or Dr. Olivinho Gomes], also, Mr. Alban Couto or Mr. J.C. Almeida
or Dr.Ajit Shirodkar.......... as possible Moderators.
This is the first time that such names have come up. And this is more than
welcomed by the CI. However, CI has already identified the moderator in Prof.
MS Kamat and has announced his name as such.
What the people want, people must get. However, the above consideration is
subject to the acceptance by CI of the choice suggested with no promises made
to effect the
change, given the tight timings.
Sincerely,
for CI
Floriano Lobo
Convenor
