Dear Goans,
With regards to the Swindon Goan Festival, I request a polite signature campaign for Goa be done and be given to MLA Francisco Silveira (who the organizers have invited); copies to the Chief Minister and if possible, to other ministers as well. I understand that Swindon has a sizeable Goan Community and have even seen a BBC Documentary on the same. This action can send a strong message to our Politicians that we cannot see our state/identity being destroyed and that we need our Politicians need to act immediately. The UAE Goans have already sent a signature campaign but we cannot do it alone; I hope we all appreciate that if we lose Goa, all Goans including that Overseas in Swindon, UAE and elsewhere will be irrelevant.
