*CONG WANTS NAVAL BASE SHIFTED OUT OF DABOLIM - Gomantak Times - 16 May
2016*

COMMENTS:

This, in deed, is sweet music to our ears. GSRP congratulates the newly
appointed Congress Block President Francisco Nunes for taking up this long
forgotten issue by the Congress Party. It is now that the ball will start
rolling. That it took the Congress Party a total annihilation from the
political scene in Goa after its 34 year rule to look at the illegal
occupation of the Navy of Goa's Civilian Airport, speaks volumes.

The  Congress leaders who proudly promoted MOPA Airport, even calling it
their baby, so that our Dabolim's centrally located airport may be
gift-wrapped and handed to the Navy to do what it wants and when it wants
along with the vast sorrounding areas for its recreation and holiday making
in Goa, must be now getting palpitations that their younger generation
leaders are now questioning their long silence to this gross illegality by
the Indian Navy. Goa Su-Raj Party will support anyone who wants the Navy
out. It will,  too willingly,  join in to sing the chorus ' NAVY GET OUT'
with them, come sun come rain.

We have in our possession all the proofs of the illegalities that the Navy
has committed in Goa in the name of the so called LIBERATION of Goa, which
definitely was not. More accurately, we Goan have been re-colonized through
false promises and taken for  granted for our weakness to stand up to be
counted. It is time to move the United Nations to eject the Indians out of
Goa just like Indonesians were ejected out of Timor Leste. Or else, better
sense must prevail with India's who is who about  relenting to give Special
Status to Goa under Article 371 of the Indian Constitution. Both India and
Portugal had no right to sign between themselves the 1974 Co-operation
Treaty without taking GOANS into confidence. If Portugal thought nothing
about being kicked out like bloody dogs and running with their tails
between their legs to come  back to lick the feet that kicked them out in
the first place, and, India, for feeling secure,  thinking that the backs
of the Goans were broken through the 2 years of martial law imposition post
December 19, 1961, they must think again. They must realise that posterity
never forgives but comes back roaring  back more ferociously than expected.
Only time will tell.

Very well done Francisco Nunes. We at GSRP salute you. May your tribe
increase in leaps and bounds to make a difference in 2017 to keep the
nouveau charlatans which are in deed the  B-Team of the RSS-BJP, away.

GSRP for Goa's own High Command in Goa.
NAVY GET OUT.

*‘TIRED’ INDIA GO DOWN TO TANZANIA*



*By Nilanjan Datta,AIFF Media Team*


*VASCO (GOA): *A “tired” India went down 1-3 to Tanzania in their second
match of the AIFF Youth Cup at the Tilak Maidan, Vasco, Goa. Tanzania led
2-1 at half time.


For Tanzania, Maziku Amani opened the scoring in the 20th minute off a
diagonal right-footer which beat a diving Indian Goalkeeper Mohammad Nawaz
Khan. Eight minutes later, Sarif Khan, in an effort to intercept Asad Ai’s
cross deflected the ball into his own net.


For India, Komal Thatal reduced the margin in the 36th minute, gleefully
tapping it in the rebound after Tanzanian Golkepeer Ramadhani had failed to
gather it properly.


However, Tanzania sealed it two minutes after resumption – Asad Ali curling
in a free-kick from just outside the box.

Speaking at the Official post-match Press Conference, Tanzanian Coach
Bakari Shime said India “looked tired.”


“They were technically better than us. But we beat them for fitness. They
looked tired and drained out after their 2-2 draw against Malaysia” he said

Indian Assistant Coach Eitebar Ibrahim said it was “bad day” for us. “We
have trust in our boys. The opponents deserved to win. We were not at our
best,” he maintained at the Official post match Press Conference as Niclai
Adam was ordered to leave the bench by the fourth Official.


“Our main focus stays the AFC U-16 Championship and the FIFA 2017 U-17
World Cup. Mistakes at this stage happen. The boys are learning,” he added.


Tanzania looked the better Team on the field. India did have their chances
but in such a match unless one capitalizes, you pay for it. The cohesion
which was evident all over against Malaysia seemed to be fizzling out as
the game progressed. Moreover, the composure of the two rival Central
Defenders frustrated India all throughout.


India were off the blocks faster. In the first minute itself, Komal
hoodwinked his marker but his placement went wide. Some 10 minutes later,
Boris cut in from the corner and placed it for Ninthoi. The latter’s shot
all addressed to the net was tipped over but a stretched Ramadhani.


Nicolai brought in his first change as early as the 30th minute – Rakip
replacing Aimol. He did utilize all the three within the next 28 minutes –
Aman coming in for Sanjeev (53rd) and then Gaston replacing Ninthoi (58th).


For India, the easiest chance of the match fell in the 70th minute. Aman
sneaked in between the two defenders and had Ramadhani at his mercy. But in
an effort to finish off fast, he muffed it. Another half chance came in the
80th minute – but even as Ramadhani missed the flight of Gaston’s corner,
Amarjit’s header went wide.


With India having staged a spectacular comeback against Malaysia in the
last 10 minutes, everyone was hoping for another. But it all belonged to
Tanzania. In fact, had their Strikers maintained calm, they could have
scored a couple, or maybe even three more.


India next play United States of America in their next match on May 19 at
8pm.

Christianity

A Liberal, Caring and Justice-Driven Face of Goan Christianity

FN
Someone reading him online once accused Desmond de Sousa of
being an "angry young priest", possibly even a young upstart who
was critical of the Church in Goa. But Demi, as he was known
to his friends, clarified, without missing the irony: "Let me
assure one and all, I'm 73 years old this September [2012],
54 years a Redemptorist and 46 years a priest Among my
many illustrious students who have become my superiors over
the years are bishops, including the present Archbishop of
Goa, with whom I enjoy a very cordial relationship."
[http://bit.ly/1ZZ8xAg]

Demi came from a priviledged background, yet he spoke boldly
and without mincing words -- like the prophets of old --
against injustice and for the poor. His family has played a
prominent role in village affairs in Saligao (I remember the
'Saligao Bulletin' sold for 15 paise in the 1960s and a book
called *Floreata Saligao* authored by his septuagenarian dad
C. Hubert de Souza). And yet he was one of the few priests at
the frontlines of the ramponkar agitation in the 1970s in Goa.

If you saw him cycling along the humid roads between Porvorim
and Saligao (as he did till a few years back), you would
hardly guess that he had been the globe-trotting Executive
Secretary of the Office of Human Development (OHD) of the
Federation of Asian Bishops (FABC) for over 10 years during
the 1980s and co-ordinated the Asia-Pacific national offices
of Caritas Internationalis.

  Demi passed away suddenly and without any
  prolongued illness on May 14, 2016, on the
  operating table, during emergency angioplasty,
  after suffering a massive heart attack just a few
  hours earlier. "Those of us who knew him well and
  met him often are in shock at how suddenly and
  unexpectedly it all happened," wrote Mario
  Mascarenhas, activist who had been an associate of
  Demi decades ago.

He was a friendly, concerned, helpful and outspoken man. When
he had something to say even about the Church, he said it
without mincingi words; you would scarcely guess that the
criticism came from a man of the cloth. In a 2012 article he
wrote for Goanet Reader [http://bit.ly/1TdilrN], titled 'The
Challenge to the Church in Goa: Revivalism or Renewal?' Fr
Desmond de Sousa CSsr acknowledged the colonial roots of the
Goan church and wrote:

  ...The clergy generally find it extremely difficult
  to accept a more participative, co-responsible and
  socially committed Church with the laity The
  laity however, are deeply divided about the pace
  and direction of change that renewal demands. A
  paradigm shift in faith formation is needed. They
  need a more inductive reflection on the daily
  realities of life to discover the challenge of God
  acting within these realities, rather than the
  traditional deductive process of learning abstract
  truths of faith by heart.

  ...Some of the more enlightened laity support and
  participate in the renewal process as a genuine and
  necessary expression of the Catholic Church in Goa.
  But the vast majority are caught up in the
  revivalist spiritual awakening that is sweeping Goa.

  ...Will the Church in Goa continue to operate as a
  decrepit, colonial Church or become transformed
  into a vibrant, indigenous Church? Renewal of the
  Church or Revivalism in the Church -- that is the
  question. The caliber of the Church's leadership
  will be severely tested by the question of whose
  perspective will ultimately triumph!

He worked at the grassroots and on picket lines, and he
understood it. Elsewhere, Demi narrates his experiences in
meeting the young Matanhy Saldanha, the
activist-turned-politician who ironically played a crucial
role in helping the BJP return to power in Goa in 2012. He
says: "In the early 1970s during a retreat to college
students in Belgaum, I first met this rather shy, aloof,
silent 20 plus-year-old, who immediately struck me as
different. His friends made fun of him because he had dreams
of entering politics when he returned to Goa. Which
20-year-old is so focused in life?"

"Immediately I recognized his rather unusual name when
reading the news about the leader of the agitation against
Zuari Agro Chemicals polluting the land and then the sea
around Velsao. In 1975, when I was transferred to Goa, I made
it a point to renew our acquaintance. By 1977-78, I was
heavily involved with him in the Ramponcar agitation."

[Goanet] Interesting times

2016-05-17 Thread Roland
Reuters reports that the US Senate has passed a bill allowing the victims and 
relatives of victims to sue Saudi Arabia for its role in 9/11 in US federal 
courts.

This is a momentous bill which is expected to be also passed by the House 
although it may attract Obama's veto. 

Saudi Arabia has already threatened to sell three-quarters of a trillion 
dollars worth of American T-Bills if that happens. I don't know if it will 
threaten the US financial system, though if pushed, the US can counter 
-threaten to withdraw all protection towards that country leaving it completely 
vulnerable.

If Saudi Arabia finally ends up paying I know three Goan families of victims 
who will benefit from a large compensation which will be no less than 50 to a 
100 million dollars each.

Of course the US courts must see a direct link between the Saudi Govt and the 
horrific act and the US must also be prepared to be sued in the courts of 
various countries.

As I said, interesting times

[Goanet] Azil - Old Age Home

2016-05-17 Thread JoeGoaUk
 Few years ago, when I was regularly visiting Majorda Asilo (Old Age Home) saw 
a new inmate in a corner of a ward of 8-10 beds who was very quite.. Upon 
enquiry, I was told she hardly talks and she will not even eat.. I tried to 
talk  or just tried to say ‘hi’  but she would not respond as if she was in a 
deep shock.  
Yes, she was in a state of shock as her only son put her here

Two months later when I visited again, I asked about the same lady whose bed 
was vacant,  I was told she died long time ago.

prescriptions so that their customers can claim government benefits. Isn't
that cheating the government?

I have solid proof that certain professionals issued additional medicines
in their prescriptions at the request of patients so that the bill is
inflated and reimbursed through their respective office (whether Central or
State Government) after putting their own official seal later at Goa
Medical College.

RESPONSE:


A doctor issues a prescription and not a bill for medicines dispensed/purchased.

A doctor signs and stamps his own prescription and not a bill issued by a 
pharmacy/drug store.

A bill is issued when a purchase is made. It it is made without a purchase then 
how is a doctor to be blamed?
