TSKK’s New website and New Publications
Thomas Stephens Konknni Kendr’s (TSKK) website www.tskk.org has been redesigned
by Team Inertia Technologies, Panaji. It was launched on 18 December 2008 by
Mr Wilson Wilmix Mazarello, the Convenor of Romi Lipi Action Front. It
contains the information about TSKK, its facilities, courses, activities and
its mini botanical garden. Besides, it has a Konknni section in Roman script.
This section contains sub-sections like: Aichem Jevonn (thought for the day),
Lokdaiz (Konknni folklore: proverbs, riddles), Mhoineache Suvalle (festivals of
Goa), Angonn (children’s corner: nursery rhymes, stories), Umalle (Konknni
SMS), Bolkanv (information of new releases of Konknni books, important current
events in Konknni world), and Motiam (learn new Konknni words and their
usage). For the time being this information will be renewed on 1st and 16th of
every month. Based on the demands and financial support of its viewers TSKK
intends to make this Konknni
section as a weekly net magazine. TSKK hopes through its Konknni section,
Konknni will be popularized and Konknnis (Konknni speakers) will be united
through the Roman script. The English section gives the information of recent
important Konknni functions and events. TSKK invites suggestions to improve
its website from the viewers and readers.
