With reference to the article on Herald "Occupants in MLA's car escape villagers fury HERALD CORRESPONDENT CANACONA, JUNE 28" One can only say Bravo Nuemkars Bravo ! I do admire the courage, the resolve and the unity my villagers, and that's the right way forward.
Nuem is a small hamlet on the west coast of Goa, It's scenic natural beauty has enthralled thousands of picnickers and visitors, who are never ever satisfied and keep on visiting it over and over again, it's still virgin land, far from the hustle bustle of the rest of the coastal villages of Goa, no foreign nor local tourists, no restaurants, no shacks, no lamanies and no stray dogs and cattle, it's only hoards of Goans who come for picnics and enjoy one of natures gift, although the drive in never easy still people come and enjoy themselves to the fullest, it's one of the safest beach in Goa, plenty of fresh water from the spring close to the sea and fresh Goan breeze under the shade of coconut trees. We the locals have been very hospitable to all our visitors, even with all the blaring of loudspeakers the whole day long and the mess that's left around by the picnickers, if one wants to enjoy himself, please do come, enjoy and have a good time, but never ever make a mistake to visit the abandoned mine which is on the southern side of our village, we are very very suspicious bunch of people when it come to the mine which was abandoned over forty years ago, any one visiting that area could land in very serious trouble, because there have been attempts made in the past year to restart mining operations and we the villagers have been so far successful in holding our fort and we do not take kindly to people who visit this site without informing the local people, and with the terror threats to India and Goa, unannounced visitors could get seriously hurt. Ours is a small village but we are very united and committed to the cause and we will not allow any mining operations in our village come what may. It's been discovered that the car involved in the above incident belonged to the Sanguem MLA, who is dealing in ore business, as a member of the Nuem village, would like to advise the so called politicians, please do not play with the feelings of the people of Nuem. Keep away from our abandoned mine and stay out or else we will fight and fight we will. Nuemkars jai ho.
