Subject: Re: Just between you & me, Mr. Floriano this part of the editorial
speaks volumes on what's going on in Goa. Pls dwell on the same, from your
point of view...... I am posting the same on gulf-goans, you may put a
re-joinder/follow-up. Regards/gaspar almeida
Dear Gasper,
I do hope that these comments will find its way in the gulfgoan list, while
thanking you for posting the below to me for my comments.
First, I am sorry to say that I have not been as euphoric as Venita Coelho
about the rally against CORRUPTION at Panjim, and I do not share her
optimism that GOA can tackle corruption at home at the individual level.
Those who do it are like needles in a haystack, probably wanting out too.
And I want to congratulate Anthony Simoes for his usual burst at exposing
the 'rot' which nobody tends to bother about. But I have come to a stage
where my well of congratulatory utterings has bone dried-up. Today, every
next person seems to be doing better expose' than the other and the
newspaperman is laughing all the way to the bank. And the chanawalla is
having a field day too parceling his channas with these worthy articles.
When Venita Coelho says: "For the first time in years, a non-political
rally in Goa drew a huge crowd", she must remember that the non-political
GBA rally on 18 December, 2006 was 5000 plus and it became water on duck's
back. Therefore just a 1000 at the anti-corruption rally is a washout
sending a signal to the world that Goa wants to revel in CORRUPTION.
Otherwise, this rally should have been 10,000 plus. Anthony Simoes is very
right. Corruption has seeped into the Goan psyche in a record time of 49
years. That should be a WORLD RECORD if they have such a record. Goa from
nil corruption to 100 per cent corruption in just 49 years speaks volume
about the reason WHY. Simply because the WHIP that rooted out corruption was
buried deep deep down calling it a DICTATORSHIP and we Goans opted for this
CORRUPT DEMOCRACY or what was hanged from our necks by the invading
loudmouths and their Goan chamchas who call themselves Goa's Freedom
Fighters. WHAT A SHAME INDEED.
No, I stayed away from the Rally because I didn't want to count the number
of hypocrites marching. And I didn't want to listen to more hypocrites
haranguing the lesser hypocrites at the top of their tonsils. No. I was not
there because I didn't want to be a minority among hypocrites. But if this
rally was a political rally, I would have been there to lead it. Only then
the absence of politicians who stir the cauldron of corruption would be
noticed by their very absence. And this political rally would have taken Goa
some place.
If GOA wants to be a non-corrupt state, it has to dig hard to find that
buried WHIP. And hard to believe but true that ' The WHIP ' can also
co-exist with DEMOCRACY too. Singapore, which our esteemed corrupt
politicians call a POLICE STATE, is corruption free while it stays FULLY
DEMOCRATIC. A food for thought, indeed for those who want to think.
A person, by nature, will always opt for short-cuts in the absence of a
WHIP. Short-cuts is CORRUPTION. I have given this example before and I
shall say it again.
LEFT TO THE CONVENIENCE OF AN INDIVIDUAL, HE WILL OPT TO SHIT IN THE MIDDLE
OF A BUSY ROAD IF THERE IS NO ONE TO SAY " HEY ! WHAT ARE YOU DOING"
...IRRESPECTIVE OF THE TRAFFIC BEING JAMMED. BUT THE VERY THOUGHT OF THE
MIGHTY WHIP COMING CRASHING ON HIS BACK WILL DRY UP HIS SHIT FOR GOOD.
Goa Su-Raj has this WHIP and it will not shy away from using it too.
Give Goa Su-Raj a full 5 year term and Goans will wonder where the
CORRUPTION has vanished.
TRY IT GOA.
Do not be HYPOCRITICAL.
This is a CHALLENGE FROM YOUR OWN SONS AND DAUGHTERS WHO ARE FLYING THE FLAG
OF GOA SU-RAJ PARTY.
Cheers

We cannot join a rally when the political motives of the shouting brigade
are contradictory and masked.
SORRY boys the truth is naked for those who have eyes and ears
