Dear Goanetters, "Small Service is true service; the daisey by the shadow that it casts protects the lingering dew drops from the sun" Worthy words from the poet. How true it is in real life! Mr.Kishore G.Shanbhogue, Dy.General Manager, Corporation Bank , Rua de Ourem, Panaji, Goa, is transferred to Mangalore. He has been serving Goa from the year 2007. During his tenure, Mr.Shanbhogue not only increased the business of Corporation Bank, Goa Zone, but also got himself connected with the various developmental activities of Goa. He took initiatives on various fronts including Financial Inclusion Programme, Introduction of Electronic Biometric Cards to the illiterate Customers of the Bank, Engaging the services of Business Correspondents from the Self Help Group Women, the introduction of MICR Centre Clearing at Panaji and streamlining the functioning of the Speed Clearing etc., He also revived the functioning of the Banker's Club Panaji through his membership drive and increased interactions with the fellow bankers at Goa. His initiative to introduce Tax Collection of Government of Goa, through all the branches of Corporation Bank during the year 2008, helped the citizens of Goa to have an alternative payment centre at Corporation Bank branches, for tax payments to Goa Government. Mr.Shanbhogue took the initiative to co ordinate with the Banks and the GCCI, during the Iron Ore Crisis by assessing the magnitude of the crisis through the discussion platform of the Exporters and the Tipper owners and the Mine Owners' Organisations. There is a farewell function to Mr.Shanbhogue organised by the Banker's Club, Panaji. Goa will be missing the expertise of Mr.Kishore G.Shanbhogue but Goan sentiments and love remain withhim for ever.
