It is high time you stop focussing on what is legal for Goa and what is actually right for Goa!! But then why would you; your hardly have permanent stakes in Goa as a Indian Citizen like me.

Legality has not deterred politicians and entities in the current destruction of Goa. Mario responds: By definition, laws are passed based on what is good for the place and its citizens. If you don't like the laws you must collect enough political support to change the laws. If the politicians are not enforcing the laws, you need to collect enough political support to replace them with honest politicians. This is how a democracy works, which those who live in the dictatorships of the middle-east may have forgotten. If legalities have not deterred politicians and "entities" in the current destruction of Goa, then what makes you think those same politicians and entities give a sh.., ...er, hoot, what you and Mr. Mesquita think about what is "right" for Goa, especially when you don't even live there? Ranting and raving about what is going on in Goa may make you feel better but is hardly likely to garner results. That can only come from a groundswell of political support and organization and a successful effort to replace the current corrupt politicians with ones that are at least honest and interested in the welfare of Goa and not just themselves.
