It is really unfortunate to know of Goans, actively engaging is the large scale of Goan Land to outsiders and the promotion for mega-projects; to realise a life of luxury for themselves and their families. As a result of their selfish actions, Goa and majority of the population have to bear the brunt of various related negative fall-outs e.g. (1) Garbage/Sewerage issues (2) Land/Water Contamination (3) Effect on basic water/electric supplies (3) Changes in Demography & resultant effect on Identity (5) Scarce land available for locals, (6) Increased Traffic and Car Exhaust contamination etc. It is a well known fact that capitalism cannot be allowed an in-discriminate spree; to affect the land & local populace negatively. These in-discriminate land sales which benefits the lifestyles of a privileged few, has to be stopped/restricted; these greedy individuals are in the process of selling their state, values, identity for greed/personal gains. To quote Mahatma Gandhi: ”There is enough for everyone's need but not enough for everyone's greed." Arwin Mesquita, Abu Dhabi.
