I take this opportunity to extend my Hearty Congratulations! to the organizers
GNAT for the job well done. There will always be short falls to point out as
no one is perfect in such a mighty Organization. The Organizers deserve the
credit for what they have done and achieved. There can never be 100% results.
It takes years to build but destruction can be done in seconds. There will
always be constructive and destructive criticism. The Organizers must be
strong and determined to carry on such herculean task for the noble cause of
Goa and Goans. It was, indeed, a very hard task for the Organizers who deserve
all the praise and due credit for their accomplishment. Being an organizer of
Events as the President of Goan Welfare Society - Kuwait for several years
where one is restricted in various ways and assisting evacuation of Goans
during the occupation of Kuwait by Iraq in difficult times, one is fully aware
how hard it is to organize and an Event specially of that magn
itude. The workshop in particular was a novel idea and it could benefit for
many of our Goans to open up their eyes for their better tomorrow. The only
shortfall was the poor response according to my eye. The Sons of the soil
failed to take the advantage of the same. The organizers must work in
coordination with all the Goan Clubs/Associations/Village Clubs etc so as to
make it reach to every son of the soil. My hats off to Dr. Kevin Saldanha,
wife Mrs Saldanha with whom I had the chance to interact for a short while but
seen them in action. One could see each and every worker on their toes
assisting them to the fullest. I do not recall all the names but certainly
cannot forget Bosco D'Mello in the lime light playing silently his active roll
so also Francis (President) and his wife, if not mistaken, Clera. My hats off
to Mando Mogui specially flown from Goa, the Goan culture and art lovers for
their superb performance capturing the hearts of all.
May God Bless them all for having linked the Hearts, Minds and Souls of Goans
in Canada apart from the visiting dignitaries.
Long live Goa!
