Re: [Goanet] misfired price blame
Very pertinent point JC about memory and loss, and perhaps one of the best posts I remember seeing on GN. I do not believe we as a people are inclined towards memory, nor self-reflection. However we do know how to memorize, the methodologies involved including via rote towards knowledge absorption and certainly regurgitation, But the corridors for such applications are narrow, and I digress. Memory is not about holding nor withholding, but about allowing oneself to evolve as I can see you certainly know -- to evolve, by carrying things that can be carried within oneself amidst changes that one cannot always stem, yet fighting for those like space, monuments, etc; standing ones ground on ways of living, sharing, cultural ways, language -- its wanton dilution etc. To never let certain things be taken away without a parallel anguish, nor torn apart and away from our mental horizons. As always it is easy for say me to talk from outside, BUT it is easier for those in Goa to change a few things. Ex: There is nothing that should prevent a minister, or a councillor and accordingly down the chain to walk the streets with broom, invite people walking around, hand them a broom and say -- at least join me today -- I intend to follow this up on and off; serve some tea from small restaurants close by. If not Goans in the beginning on account of our much celebrated tumidity's, trust me the outsiders including the well-heeled ones will participate. In my personal work, I look at religion, sexuality and consciousness. To a large degree it is about memory -- many personal ones and others as I learn them over time; your reference gives me the opportunity to say this. It is on account of certain memories -- many of them irate, and others that conjoin with them that I am in the process of making changes in my time and how I see its furtherance and sustenance. A visit to http://venantiusjpinto.blogspot.com will bring some of it out. Thanks JC. Thanks all. venantius j pinto Message: 1 Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2011 11:00:58 -0500 From: J.

As regards citing the example of Cuba, it was just the point to refute the argument whether one can survive by growing potatoes and tomatoes,.I may not agree with the political system in place. But food sufficiency is as vital to any economy as any other industry. Having to depend on others for food and water offers scope for arm twisting. That is exactly what is going to happen to Goa that heavily depends on 90% of its agriculture produce from Maharashtra and Karnataka. Recently the vegetable transporters had a strike because horticulture department of Goa was procuring vegetables and selling it at cheaper rates. Tomorrow it will be over some political issue that vegetables and milk supply gets stopped. To me, this dependency is the single greatest threat for Goa's survival. COMMENT: You make a very valid point. If one depends to a greater than reasonable degree on another for food, electricity and other basics, one has automatically subjected oneself to the possibility of economic blackmail. The investors have come to Goa, swiped the best spots (along with the victors), are using the water, fish etc resources, have promised a million jobs for Goans (which, hopefully, no sensible person believed) and will leave only when the place is sucked drylike hyenas and other predators do. What I do not see on the horizon is relief. Courtesy the politicians and their vote-banks, I honestly cannot imagine how the status quo can be changed except in the realm of wishful thinking. As a chap said to me during my most recent trip to Goa: Get used to it, Goa has been liberated. Nobody can un-liberate it again. I have gotten used to it. jc
[Goanet] Oil Gas Conservation Fortnight
Extremely noble cause but contradictions galore. While the Oil Gas conservation forthnight is declared the government of India does little towards realising this dream. Billboards and posters will offer some decoration while a few may also get some gainful employment for a few days. Cars continue to roll onto the road and everyone is driven to burn fossil fuel because the public transport system is in shambles. In fact it works out cheaper owning a private vehicle than using public transport in Goa. Then we have wonderful traffic jams and speed breakers every few metres which compels changing of gears and acceleration. Frequent power supply interruptions requires generators run on fossil fuel. And then we have those who care the least and are not ready to walk even for 100 metres. They just need a vehicle to substitute their limbs. So one more week will pass. Another program will be held to utilise the budgetary provisions and thereafter it will be Good bye until next year'. -Soter

[Goanet] Fwd: Brutality And Apathy Of Goa Police
Brutality And Apathy Of Goa Police Do the police and security services not know, that death in custody would bring about a lot of repercussions ? Yes they know, they know the Law inside out, but they fall prey to their own arrogance and high-handedness. To show the accused or the guilty who the master guardian is and how powerful he can be. A custodial death at once brings the onus on police brutality. The accused as well as the guilty and each and every one of us is equally protected by international laws called human right laws, even though criminals do not give a shit about their victims human rights. In truth, a lot of criminals today hide behind the human rights placard to save them selves from retribution. Goa has been having a fare share of increase in lawlessness for the past few years, even as news about the police-criminals-politician nexus is being unearthed, even more are exposed by the day and the apathy of the authorities is highlighted as no corrective action or remedial processes are put in place. Last one month or so the police have been running in circles to clean up their degraded image but to no success as more allegations of the police involvement in crime pop up, now to top it all, Goa has been shaken by police brutality leading to the death of Cipriano Fernandes in police custody. What was the dreadful crime that he had committed, that he had to be mercilessly beaten to death ? Cirpiano was not a known goonda, nor a drug dealer, nor a rapist, nor a murderer, nor a fraudster like some of our politicians, just because he had an altercation with his girlfriend, he, certainly did not deserve the treatment that was meted out to him by the police. Criminals should be apprehended and tried, not butchered. We all know that drug lords, criminals and fraudsters get the best of treatment from the police and politicians alike but one time offenders like Cipriano or even innocent guys get the worst from our Police. How many innocent Goans have been beaten up by the police on the behest of politicians, miners and builders ? It’s a pity that the very people who are appointed as guardians of the law become the perpetrators and the offenders. When they are inducted into the civil services they take an oath to uphold the law of the land and provide protection to the needy and the poor. How many of them stay faithful to that divine oath ? We need to change our system very badly. I am sure ever one is aware that entry into the civil services costs lakhs of rupees, so how else will they get back that money ? Hence they are forced to do the evil, for money they do anything and everything, even bashing up people to death, selling drugs and also let criminals disappear into thin air, if that is what is being asked of them by their financers. As Goa today is going gaga over the custodial death of Cipriano Fernandes, I would like to remind Goans that Cipriano is not the first victim of police brutality in Goa ? This incident only came to light because the relatives and friends along with the Media have forced this issue, and because of the involvement of the people and the media, the authorities are forced to act, we are not sure if justice will see day light, but it has opened the eyes of the public of what the police are capable of doing. Let us realize that there are lot more people who are victims of police brutality but somehow their voices do not reach the people or the media for reasons best know. Along with police brutality we have seen on a number of occasions how deaths through murders, drugs and rapes are declared natural deaths, how many people have gone missing and our police refuse to even register cases because of the bigwigs involvement in those crimes or the minuscule status of the victim. Our supreme constitution tells us that we are all equal and that justice would be delivered irrespective of status, wealth, religion, education, cast, creed or region. Do we see such justice in Goa ? In Goa the rich and the powerful are beyond the law, as we have witnessed on so many occasions. How many times have politicians and their family members made a mockery of the law with absurd manipulations and have got away with criminal acts ? Today there is nothing we can do for Cipriano in person accept ask, for justice and to punish the guilty, so that no one stays above the law or take law into their own hands. Let us strive to seek for justice not just for Cipriano but for all those who are deprived of justice by our corrupt and criminal system headed by our police and our politicians. I hope the Media will continue to be bold enough to take up such issues and expose the culprits who think they are above and beyond the law. Let the power of the people of Goa be known to one and all who thinks law and justice is a mere tool and a toy for them to play with. Freddy Agnelo Fernandes
[Goanet] Let us salute the Opinion Poll - Zalach Paaije, 16th January.
True, old Jak's talk touched an emotional cord and Jan 16th should indeed be Goan Identity Day (what ever is left of it). The phrase Zalach paaije... still hounds ones visual memory, the dirty orange lotus, forever the fleur de mal! That said, the old chap Jak was was aloof and I doubt he cared much for the people of Goa. He was withdrawnvery likely, his caste, his snootiness and his relative wealth made it so (who knows). Therefore, not a great leader, just a simply at the right place, right time with the right speech. He was the dictator, a guy who had the right message but never in touch with the people. There is the other doktor dude from Saligao, pretty much the same. He will tell you stories of what he did for Goaall squat. These guys never understood what it meant to be a leader, not had too much of a vision. He simply had time on his hands, never embraced the Goan people, never much cared for them, rather dictated to them from their perches. These are the presidents set by these folks resulted in the present crop of gaaunti-leader (pardon the expression, there is no other phrase to describe the robber-baron politicians of today). Anyways, these are stories of the past and will soon be forgotten. What one would like to throw stones and part-take is a big name-change action (something like the Concani movement)..remove all names of desi 'leaders' from Goan monuments. Imagine, which idiot named the Vasco football ground after Tilok, Margao ground after Nuru, the dirty GMC after his grand son? Why not call the Vasco ground after Goa's greatest ever football club, Vasco (http://vascosportsclub.com)...the Fatorda ground after commentator Benao and the GMC.be my guest, it ain't matter.

I continue to hope for the speedy and full recovery of the injured. I have been President for Goan Overseas Association for 12 years, and in this time the Association has hosted hundreds of events.

To dispel any unsubstantiated comments with regard to incident rates, I am letting you know this, as I firmly believe that the recent altercation at the New Year’s dance was an isolated incident given the fact that there has not been one at our New Year functions for the past decade. After the 4 altercations we had experienced, the Association made a decision that tighter security would be in place for events at which young adults were attending in large numbers. In these cases the security guards would individually check all guests with metal detectors and would do a physical check. To answer questions being asked of us about the New Year’s Eve event, the bar and security was provided, managed and the responsibility of the hall and this has been very successful for many years. The majority of the guests (members and non members) attending the event were adults and youth. The young adults in attendance were minimal in comparison to total attendance. Based on the history of hosting New Year’s Eve events over the last decade, further enhanced security was not considered necessary and we as an Association were not aware of, or for that matter notified, directly or indirectly, of any persons considered to be a threat to the safety of our guests. Once we realized an escalation in threat towards the safety of our guests in the parking lot which was considered a public area and not under the jurisdiction of the security guards, the local police were called. Soon after the altercation, the Association contacted the Peel Regional police department and was informed that on the night of the incident, there were no cooperative witnesses.

[Goanet] HOW POLITICIANS FOX AAM ADMI?
The high inflation in food items, prevailing in India, is largely due hoarders and traders of food items and speculators on the commodity exchanges. The lower ouput due to climatic vagaries is manageable, but the politicians are turning Nelson’s Eye. Banks are providing loans for speculating on the commodity exchanges, which is aiding high prices in the forward contracts and giving confidence to horders to buy more than the demand. They are not worried of absorbing loss of even 25% wastage in hoarded perishable food items because of high margins of over 50%. A big part of Indian agro produce business is controlled by a few associations with a few hundred members. These trader associations are estimated to reap increased margins from Rs 2500 crores per month to Rs 30,000 crores per month during UPA-2 regime. This is potentially a mega scam of omissions category. A handful of powerful chiefs of assoiations are scheming with politicians, who get a large share. The media is silent for the obvious reasons. UPA-2 is just in the second year. Elections are far. First three years is the time for politicos to make money. Next one year is to make people forget excesses of the previous three years. The last year is for distributing largesses to major electorates: NREGA to poor, 6th pay bounty to government servants, loan waivers-fertilizer subsidies to farmers etc. At the current rate of food inflation, the effective buying power of Rs 100 paid per day under NREGA would reduce by half in five years. This will give the government an opportunity to double the daily wages just before elections and garner votes. Perfect cheating! Rs 70,000 crore CWG scam and Rs 1.76 lac crore 2G scam are glimses of the magnitude of money each minister controls. The schemable amounts in the policy/decision making process of the central ministers have risen 10 fold in the last decade. The money, a central minister can now make in the first three years (of 5-year term) is mind boggling and a minister may not mind even dissolving his party or retire. Take NCP. Pawar is growing old and has already given up aspirations for PM’s post. Daughter-nephew tussle is worrisome. Other power centres like Patel, RR are waiting for opportunity. In such a scenario, merging party with Congress could be boon in disguise, if madam assures a good slot for his daughter. With a revolution against corruption threatening to erupt and with the possibilities of Lok Ayukta, government losing control over CBI and Gram-sabhas getting more powers, this perhaps could be the last term for the politicians to resort to large scale excesses (of omissions) and yet go scot free by stashing Swiss and Lichestein banks. The plan: Let traders profit and give us the loot. Let aam admi howl over food prices. Let Congress blame Pawar. Near to the 2014 elections, dissolve NCP. Pawar retires. Daughter joins Congress. Madam makes her telecom minister or bigger. Let the middle class keep blaming NCP. Farmers, government servents and NREGA beneficieries burdened with largesses vote Congress back to power. Why otherwise is the Finance Minister spear-heading the measures against food inlation? Finance ministry can take only peripheral measures like taxes, import duties, the effects of which percolate into the markets with a lag. The burning measures are under the ambit of the Agriculture Ministry since the causes of price rise are supervised by them. Rajendra
[Goanet] [JudeSundayReflections] Third Sunday of the Year
16-Jan-2011 Dear Friend, Sometimes it takes a loss to realize the many gifts we are blessed with, which we take for granted in life. If we injure our feet and can’t walk we suddenly realize what a gift it is to be able to move about on our own feet. If the lights go off and we are plunged into darkness we realize how precious light is, which helps us to see and move about. We might curse the darkness but do we appreciate the gift of light? More than light is the gift of enlightenment, faith, which helps us to see God’s hand in our life. Let’s thank God for being our Light! Have an enlightened weekend! Fr. Jude Sunday Reflections: ‘Third Sunday of the Year – ‘Called to be and spread the Light’ 23-Jan-2011 Isaiah 8: 23- 9: 3 I Corinthians 1: 10-13, 17 Matthew 4: 12-23 In the first reading the prophet Isaiah addresses the plight of the entire northern tribes of Israel, represented by Zebulun and Napthali. They had been conquered by the powerful Assyrian army and their entire territory was taken over. They gave up all hope. But the prophet gives them hope reminding them that in former times the Lord brought contempt over them, but now He will make glorious the land beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations. “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light..., the yoke on their shoulder has been removed, as on the day of Midian.” Lead Kindly Light….. A young man who later became a Cardinal was returning by sea from Italy to his native England. While the boat was detailed in Sicily, young Newman fell ill and nearly died. During his convalescence, he wrote these words: “Lead kindly light, amid the encircling gloom,” because he believed that the prophecy of Isaiah had come true: “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light.” The death of a lifelong spouse, an unexpected rejection by a loved one, a smashed dream of business success or the loss of good health can throw us into a temporary darkness. But at such tragic moments, true believers have in the past seen the light of Christ, a light that illumines the shadows of our hearts with the radiance of his splendour, guiding us to travel safely over the tempestuous sea of this mortal life, steering the vessel of life through rough storms of trials and troubles, until we have made it to the harbour of peace and bliss. Vima Dasan in ‘His Word Lives’ In today’s gospel we read of Jesus withdrawing from Galilee after the arrest of John the Baptist and he goes to the region of Zebulun and Naphtali, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah, inaugurating his public ministry in that region and announcing that the kingdom of God is near at hand. No doubt he was affected by the arrest and subsequent murder of his cousin, John the Baptist, but his mission must go on. God’s word and the good news had to be proclaimed in the face of opposition and trial. “The people that lived in darkness have seen a great light.” This is how St. Matthew describes the impact of Jesus’ ministry. Because the northern kingdom of Israel bordered the pagan territory, it would be associated with darkness. Isaiah predicted the liberation of that region and Matthew sees Jesus now fulfilling that prophecy as he begins his ministry inviting the people to repent and believe in the Gospel. He holds out hope and promise to them. Later Jesus would describe his mission in similar terms when he said: “I am the Light of the World.” The teaching of Jesus was a source of light for all those who followed him. In each of us there is the darkness of sin, but each of us can also be a source of light to others. We need the light of Christ to become the light to others. Jesus invited his first disciples as he walked by the Sea of Galilee to come and follow him. “They left everything immediately and then followed him.” Jesus is inviting us today not only to repent and believe the good news but to share in his mission: to receive the light of Christ, to be the light, and to share the light. Are we ready? The Arrival of the Light Some Alpine valleys are so deep that the rays of the sun do not reach them for days or even weeks in the middle of winter. These days can be very depressing ones for the people who live in the valleys. It is almost as if life was one long night. A priest who ministered in one of those valleys tells the following story. One day in the depths of winter he was in the classroom chatting with the children, who hadn’t seen the sun for nine days. Then all of a sudden a ray of sunshine shone into the classroom. On seeing it the children climbed on to their desks and cheered for sheer joy. It shows that even though the sun may not touch the skin it can warm the soul. The little incident shows how light is a source of great joy. For sick people the night is the hardest of all times. How they welcome those first rays of light which signal the end of the night and the dawning of the day. The coming of

[Goanet] Leading citizens speak up on graft, lack of governance (ToI)
MUMBAI: A group of 14 prominent and well-regarded citizens has written an Open Letter To Our Leaders to express alarm at the governance deficit in government, business and institutions, and underline the urgent need to tackle the malaise of corruption, which is corroding the fabric of our nation. It is a rare move and goes to show how quickly the mood of the nation appears to have shifted from a sense of satisfaction with political stability and high growth rates to one of grave concern over the recent spate of scandals and the sense of drift in government which, it is feared, could affect the growth story. The letter, which follows a meeting in Mumbai on Saturday, has been signed by businesspersons Azim Premji of Wipro, Keshub Mahindra of Mahindra Mahindra, Jamshyd Godrej of the Godrej Group and Anu Aga of Thermax; HDFC chairman Deepak Parekh; ICICI chairman emeritus N Vaghul; former Hindustan Lever chairman and now Rajya Sabha MP Ashok Ganguly; former Reserve Bank of India governors Bimal Jalan (also an RS MP) and M Narasimham; Justices Sam Variava and B N Srikrishna, who heard the Harshad Mehta and Mumbai riots cases respectively; chartered accountant and architect of key Sebi and RBI regulations Yezdi Malegam; member of the PM's Economic Advisory Council Prof A Vaidyanathan and banker-turned-social worker Nachiket Mor. Many in this group have played crucial roles in the India Story, advising successive governments, and at critical junctures, playing conscience-keepers. Some of them are, in fact, said to be close to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The group has said that among several urgent steps to tackle corruption, the most critical is to make the investigative agencies and law-enforcing bodies independent of the Executive... in order to ensure citizens that corruption will be most severely dealt with. In the last few months, the country has witnessed eruption of a number of egregious events, thanks to an active media eagerly tracking malfeasance. There are, at present, several loud and outraged voices, in the public domain, clamouring on these issues, which have deeply hurt the nation, the letter says. On the crisis of governance, the letter says, Widespread discretionary decision-making has been routinely subjected to extraneous influences... The judiciary is a source of some reassurance but creation of genuinely independent and constitutionally constituted regulatory bodies, manned by persons who are judicially trained in the concerned field, would be one of the first and important steps to restore public confidence. The group has called for the setting up of effective and fully empowered Lok Ayuktas in every state and early introduction of the Lok Pal Bill at the national level for the purpose of highlighting, pursuing and dealing with corruption issues and corrupt individuals. Without naming environment minister Jairam Ramesh, the group appears to tilt in favour of industry in the raging development vs conservation debate. It is widely acknowledged that the benefits of growth are not reaching the poor and marginalized sections adequately due to impediments to economic development. This is because of some critical issues like environmental concerns and differences in perspectives between central and state governments, the letter says. The group is also implicitly critical of the opposition for blocking almost the entire Parliament session gone by. It says elected representatives need to distinguish between dissent and disruption. The G14 has decided to meet again later this month and come up with suggestions on economic issues should there be a positive response from the political leadership to its offer, a member of the group told TOI. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Leading-citizens-speak-up-on-graft-lack-of-governance/articleshow/7308253.cms

Mickky also blamed Chief Minister Digambar Kamat for rampant drug trade in Goa, because 'the buck stopped with the chief minister'. Addressing a press conference late Monday after a meeting with the NCP state executive, Mickky said that Naik should be sacked and a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe should be initiated into the police-politician-drug mafia nexus case. He said Naik was a part of the nexus. 'The entire police department and the home ministry is involved in drug trade. He should be sacked from the home ministry,' Pacheco said. 'Despite the fact that police officers are being caught on camera selling drugs, there is no action being taken against them because the home minister is also involved,' said Pacheco. The NCP leader is a former tourism minister. He was part of the Congress-led coalition government in the state. The NCP, along with another regional party, is a coalition partner in the Kamat-led government. 'The NCP has been demanding that the drug nexus issue should be handed over to the CBI but the government is averse to doing so. Why are they so worried? Let the truth come out,' said the controversial legislator, who has a host of criminal cases ranging from extortion, bigamy and assault filed against him. When asked why Kamat was not taking action against Naik, the NCP legislator said: 'The drug issue means money. Money shuts mouths... that is why everyone is quiet,' Pacheco said.
