Well said that, Mr. Albert Peres,
We can see that you are probably talking facing Frisco's city scape from the
Golden Gate Bridge?
Or the smog covered Los Angeles?
Pray tell us why these goddammed investors who rush to GOA can't go the
Himachal Pradesh? Jammu & Kashmir?; Even Chatishgarh etc?
Why only in GOA?
To send Goans to Frisco and Toronto and New Jersey and Perth, Adelaide,
Melbourne and Swindon???
to make place for migrants in GOA who run after school girls with knifes
to cut their throats and fingers? and for robbers, thieves and scroundrels
who break open houses even in daylight hours and decamp with Goan Gold
Jewellery, cash and life support in lakhs?? the things that GOA had not seen
for hundreds of years??
You should come down to your Goa and share with us some of those secrets and
benefits of DEVELOPMENT and for whom those are meant for, and we shall
garland your neck with other pretty things rather than waste pretty flowers
on it.
Well said, indeed.
Cheers
floriano

Dear Mr. Parrikar,
What you call monstrosity, others call Human Development.
You see concrete. I see investment. I see new, clean, dry, strong, homes.
I see bettering of a standard of living. I see the arrival of new Goan
citizens and visitors. I see rising expectations. I see the call for new
services. I see opportunities. I see new jobs. New careers.
I see a population level rising to sustain improved standard of healthcare
and education institutions. Growing purchasing levels that will lower the
cost of introducing improved products. I see an increasing life
expectancy. I see a new Goa rising.
The world moves. Progress is not confined to just other places.
With wisdom and guidance. Here is what Goa will look like in the next
50-100 years. Search:Google.com Tab:Images, Photos of Lisbon, or, Photos
of London. Beautiful.
Some of the infrastructure of these older cities may of indeed been paid
for by what you today judgmentally call, 'ill-gotten money.' Likely not.
Most of the development is the result of plain old fashion hard work.
In the end it matters not. If they were lucky, past citizens enjoyed the
fruits of their labour. Those initial investors are now dead and gone. But
one thing for sure, wherever we live, today we enjoy their investment,
their hard work, and their strong drive for progress.
Mr. Parrikar, God did not bequeath Goa to Goans. Goa belongs to who work
for her. And those who invest in her future.

>> look at the mega-monstrosity coming up on the
hillside at Reis Magos. It is visible from Panjim, across the waterfrom
Children's Park. But for a really expansive view, you have to go to Verem.
Think about it: these will all be outsiders, many of them with ill-gotten
money, occupying the flats and villas constructed by destroying an
irreplaceable piece of Goan land. This represents the dismantling of Goa.
