Bernado is very right. Ulla does not know what she is talking about. Or she
is mixing issues. One must know what is racism in the first place.
Will Sweden allow immigrants to do what they want and how they want?. Does
the Swedish government survive on the immigrant's vote?
These things have been happening in Goa to the detriment of Goa and Goans.
Our Goan political class has become prostitutes, cultivating these migrant
votebanks for their survival and in the bargain Goa is put on the death bed
Goans need the migrants labour, and there is no doubt about that for Goa
does not have the labour class any more. But that does not mean that
migrants should be welcomed to integrate in the Goan society and willingly
allowed to vote and choose the government in Goa for the Goans.
Let Ulla go to any of the major towns and cities or the market places in Goa
and try ask for directions in Konkani.
Some people say 'So what'? Mumbai is full of outsiders. But one must
realise that Mumbai is not Maharashtra. One must go outside Mumbai to see
that Maharashtra is Maharashtra. It is not the same with Goa. Goa is
practically a 'one city' state. You allow Goa to be loaded without strict
'policies' to safe-guard Goan Identity, then Goa and Goans are surely lost
forever.
What concerned Goans are protesting is that migrants should not get voting
rights in GOA as easily as it is available today. Let them come to Goa to
find work ( Goa is become the Dubai for the migrants) but not be allowed to
become Goans overnight.

I think Goan people are over tolerant and gullible. Therefore we allowed the
ghantis a safe haven to alleviate their poverty. Today we are overun by this
race.
Goans have to pardon Ulla for her historical and politcal ignorance. Thanks
for calling us racists. We are the Goan raca.

Goans worst racists?
Daily we read in the newspapers about incidents of racism. We think that
racist acts are committed only by white men only. Indians (Goans) in
Europe, Canada, USA, etc are called "Pakis" and other racist words.
What about Goans? I was born and brought up in Sweden and have been
married to a Goan for the last 35 years. We have been settled in Goa for
the last 13 years, and I have never experienced such racism as in Goa. I
am sure that nowhere in the world is racism as accepted as in Goa.
