I never thought the day would arrive when I would agree with Cecil Pinto. The Red Sea must be parting somewhere in the world. Both Eddie Fernandes and George Pinto are giants in Goan Overseas circles, loved by just about everyone.
I narrowly missed meeting George the last time he was in London but I know well of his work. Eddie I know very well, and it amazes me the amount of energy, courage and conviction he has in the things he does and the way he maneuvers paupers and princes alike to get things done. Very often we think to ourselves, how can I make a difference to the Goan community. Well Eddie should be an inspiration to us all. This bickering doesn't do anyone any good. Let us move forward in solidarity rather than disperse with disagreement. Lord knows there are so few Goan heroes that we can actually look up to as role models. You two are an inspiration, please don't take that away from us. Best, selma
