The pharmacy was situated in Bobo's inn Cotula . It was called Bambolkar's pharmacy and Ruzarin Cordeiro was the technical director (i hope I am using correct tecknology) I cannot remember when the pharmacy was closed and bank of India was started i think it was in 1967 and Avelino Fernandes from grande Morod was the first bank Manager then. In 1967 I opened my first savings bank account and it was really a sensational job to visit the bank and deposit the money. albert
From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: [SALIGAONET] Designer History of Saligao? Great Idea! Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2013 10:01:56 +0000 I recall my Dad, years ago, talking about some Pharmacy in sCotula but didnt pay heed - Dr. Avelino used to give us the prescription way back in the 1960's & we had to go all the way to Mapusa to get the mixture made at Union Pharmacy..... Pharmacy in Saligao must have been closed before 1967,..guess that was it especially as the info is obtained from Fr. Nasciment. Perhaps one should contact Mel D'Souza also as he was in Saligao quite some time & would definitely remember & have more information. The idea of M&M is great! Unfortunately, I wont be of any help since by now most of you know I am not savvy enough when it comes to modern technology. But if Rico is going to help & Ashley decides too, then I am sure everything will be fine. All the best to all concerned.

We were talking to Rico about the possibility of getting a group of Saligaokars who would be interested in becoming Wikipedia editors/authors for the initial purpose of recording everything factual about Saligao there. A page has already been started and Rico who has his own page, has been a regular author there. Imagine a resource where you could find "Everything you ever wanted to know about Saligao and Saligaokars - in writing, stills, video and audio!" Imagine an organic, living, pulsating, vibrant history of Saligao which we villagers are creating *every day*. Why give ourselves and our village into the hands and heads of some disinterested, sleepy academics who will get an irrelevant doctorate, after producing dry-as-dust tomes that will only collect dust to match, in some never-visited library, that no one knows about...? Why not record our history as we create it daily, instead of someone else exhuming us a 100 years hence and writing fairy tales that our grandchildren cannot verify? Why not create our own history that will be accessed by thousands, in our own lifetime ;-) on one of the planet's most visited websites - 5th, only after Google, Facebook, YouTube and Yahoo excluding a Chinese site? But we need more Saligaokars to learn Wikipedia editing/authoring culture to begin contributing effectively. With his experience, Rico is ever ready to help us along. Anyone willing to meet with Rico and Mario to start a small team of Saligao Wikipedians? Warm regards and solidarity. M&M.

Fr Nascimento phoned me this information which I'm sharing on his behalf: Mrs Cordeiro was the chief pharmacist of the Farmacia Bambolcar, run by Ganpat Bambolcar in the 1950s and for some time thereafter. The pharmacy was located near the old Bank of India, somewhere near what used to be Bobo's Inn, in the heart of the Cotula market. As per the rules in force in those times (the Portuguese days), every pharmacy needed a qualified pharmacist to oversee its operations. This person was required to give instructions to the compounder about the making of medicines, etc. Hope this helps, FN FN +91-832-2409490 or +91-9822122436 [email protected] Audio recordings (mostly from Goa): http://bit.ly/GoaRecordings Goa,1556 http://www.scribd.com/doc/76671049/Goa1556-Catalogue-Books-from-Goa -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe email [email protected] -- Imagine Goa celebrating with the Christmas SPIRIT only half as much as it pushes its LIQUOR ......hic ................................................................ there *is* anOTHERgoa at <http://www.anothergoa.blogspot.in> & <http://www.youtube.com/anothergoa> ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' muriel & mario, c/o FULKAR, 6/22, sonarbhatt, saligao. bardez. goa. 403511. tel: 0832-2278276 / 2409999 <anothergoa AT gmail.com> ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe email [email protected] -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe email [email protected] -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe email [email protected]
