I remember a few years I challenged a priest a bharati who came with stories as hamara desh etc, - and who was among a congregation of party goers. I told him about the results of neo colonial rule. The priest never liked it but many in the group
were surprised (true Goan ignorance) by the information. Likewise habari yakos have little or no knowlegde of Goa during the events of 61. Therefore the quagmire stories have to be recounted continously. Answers about fixing Goa was responded on a another list this in reference to the Global Goa convention recently held in Quwait. Now if people who are interested only in foreign exchange rates clearly will not be added to such a list. Get a life and know more about Goa and the events that has led to the failure in governance since 1961. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BC, Thank you for endorsing my points in your exceptionally inimitable style. Your recap: 1) 1961 2) Priests, religions and beliefs. 3) The focus on yesterday. 4) Your awareness that this is not the forum for 'fixing' Goa. As for foreign exchange rates, your communist government has done an exceptionally good job in dictating exchange rates of the Chinese currencies. Government policy in every other country is geared to quantitative easing. Those who have understood the concept and consequences of printing money, are rich today. Those who have not, retain their faith/belief on the following words, "In God we trust." Some of those faithful will soon be turning into atheists.
