[Goanet] GOA RAJ BHAVAN IS A VERY PRICEY WHITE ELEPHANT

[Aires Rodrigues]

As was expected the rubber stamp Governor of Goa Mridula Sinha has
converted the Raj Bhavan into a BJP Dharamshala for the RSS, VHP, and the
Bajrang Dal to congregate while she very deviously continues to keep the
Raj Bhavan out of the purview of the Right to Information Act so that the
veil of secrecy persists.

The Goa Raj Bhavan has a whopping 136 staff to take care of the Governor
which includes 12 drivers, 11 peons, 11 gardeners, 13 labourers, 8
sweepers, 7 waiters, 5 telephone operators, 5 cooks and 4 electricians.
Surprisingly, the Raj Bhavan has only one Computer operator.

This huge extravagant expenditure at Raj Bhavan is a criminal waste of
public funds. For a cash strapped Goa, the Raj Bhavan should have led by
some austerity measures.  The Governor Mridula Sinha must bring the Goa Raj
Bhavan within the ambit of RTI so that there is accountability and
transparency in all that transpires within that heavily guarded fortress.

Re: [Goanet] The Carlos Cordeiro Story

[Roland Francis]

His father and grandfather are clearly Goans, born in Saligao. No question of 
being Portuguese.

These Diaspora Indian local newspapers even of the standard of India Abroad are 
mainly unreliable, cut-and-paste periodicals. Their reason for existence is not 
real news, just to fill up pages with ads targeting local Indians and make 
profits for their owners.

Read Goan Voice UK which provides links to reputable sources.

A report in India Abroad in March of this year says his father was a
Portuguese and mother a Columbian, and that he came to US from India when
he was 15. He is now 61.

[Goanet] Centre for Deafblind to open in Saligao on June 14

[Roland Francis]

Great to hear that Goa now has a Deaf Blind institution in Saligao with 65 
residents.

In Ontario, as more and more blind and visually impaired (the latter being a 
less severe affliction) children’s parents choose home schools, the W Ross 
MacDonald School for the Blind in Brantford Ontario now serves more and more 
Deaf Blind children rather than Blind alone. 

The Brantford School which has a large campus, magnificent buildings and the 
latest facilities, is a provincially owned and run residential school for Blind 
students in all of Ontario who choose to go there. Children from Toronto and 
nearby areas are  bussed home every weekend and those in more remote northern 
and eastern Ontario towns are flown every weekend, all at government expense.

Parents could chose either this one central school or they could choose public 
or Catholic schools in their neighbourhood that are served by itinerant 
teachers who are dedicated to these Blind kids. Most parents chose the 
Brantford school because of facilities and experienced teachers.

Now however more and more students are choosing neighbourhood schools and the 
Brantford school has gradually had to change focus from Blind to Deaf-Blind. 
There was always a small Deaf-Blind separate wing and building but now it it 
expanding to premises occupied previously by the Blind section alone.

Teaching Deaf-Blind children is a very specialized and challenging skill. Most 
of these children will find it difficult to ever find employment and therefore 
emphasis has to be on only basic education, independent living and volunteering 
where they can in later life. Their needs will be met by a government pension 
and by legacies from family. So they are really taught  to play with whatever 
stacked deck that life has handed to them.

Canada is a wonderful country compared even to the USA in this respect and 
though not by any means perfect, children and people with disabilities live the 
independent lives they wish to. This country truly believes that the human 
chain is as strong as its weakest links.

[Goanet] The Carlos Cordeiro Story

[Roland Francis]

Here he is some time ago, making a pitch for President of the US Soccer 
Association, a governing body with a $110 million budget and a $150 million 
reserve.

Harvard educated, he regretfully makes no reference to his Goan origin from 
where his love for soccer must have originated. Instead he just mentions he was 
an Indian immigrant for whom the American Dream worked out.

As an immigrant who came to this great country with my widowed mother and three 
siblings when I was 15—and then worked night jobs during high school and 
work-study in college—I know that when Americans set our sights high, we can 
accomplish anything.  I’ve been blessed to live the American Dream, and I want 
to help our athletes achieve theirs.

This election is not about who can kick the ball, coach a team or serve as CEO. 
 This election is about who has the vision, strategy and skills to serve as 
President of the Board of an organization with a 170-person staff, a $110 
million budget, a $150 million surplus that needs to be invested wisely, more 
than four million youth, adults, coaches and referees, and growing sponsorships 
and global partnerships. 

With more than 30 years of international business expertise, I know how to 
recruit talent and build teams, establish trust, forge consensus and 
coalitions, manage multi-billion-dollar projects and grow businesses in new and 
competitive markets.  

I’ve dedicated the past 10 years of my life to USSF as an unpaid volunteer 
because I’m a passionate life-long fan of the game and believe we can take the 
sport to new heights in America.  I was an impartial voice as the Federation’s 
first Independent Director and have taken on additional roles and 
responsibilities to help address the structural and governance challenges we 
face.  After all, governance and growth go hand in hand—we won’t achieve more 
growth until we have great governance that works with and for all our members.

Specifically, I’ve helped to significantly increase our finances as Treasurer.  
I’ve been humbled by the opportunity you’ve given me to serve as Vice President 
for nearly two years.  During this time, I’ve worked hard to reform governance 
and create new committees so that the Board is engaged in more decisions and is 
more transparent and accountable—and I know that even more progress is needed.  
In addition, I am proud to represent U.S. Soccer at the global level where I 
work closely with our international partners as a member of the CONCACAF 
Council and FIFA’s Stakeholders Committee.  

I will always be guided by the only question that matters—what’s best for our 
sport?

My Plan for Change

Over the past several weeks since announcing my candidacy—and throughout my 
time as your Vice President—I’ve met with and listened to many of you.  I’ve 
heard your concerns and know how strongly many of you feel about the need for 
systemic and transformational change.  I agree.  Together, we’ve brainstormed 
ideas and collaborated to identify solutions.  My plan for change reflects our 
shared goals, and, working together, my plan can become our plan.  

If elected, I’ll work tirelessly—in a spirit of respect and inclusion for all 
our members—to preserve what’s right and fix what’s wrong.  To put us on par 
with the best soccer programs in the world—many of which already have much 
larger budgets than we do—I believe we should develop a plan to significantly 
grow our budget over the coming decade and use those funds to increase 
investments in all our players at all levels.

I’ll lead a comprehensive and fearless review of all major issues, with a focus 
on three priority areas:

Grow the Game at All Levels—To continue growing soccer in America at all levels 
and increasing U.S. Soccer membership, we must not only Serve the Athlete and 
Serve the Fans, we must Serve all our Members with a new Membership Department 
at Soccer House.  We should invest new resources to make soccer more accessible 
and affordable for youth, especially in our cities and underserved communities; 
treat referees with greater respect; help grow membership in adult programs; 
further develop our professional leagues; and advance our goal of significantly 
increasing our budget by building even stronger corporate partnerships, 
including sponsorships.

Develop World-Class National Teams—To make sure that our women defend their 
World Cup championship in 2019, ensure that our men return to the World Cup in 
2022 and that both our men’s and women’s teams excel in 2026 and 2027—what I 
call Mission 26/27—we must: invest more in world-class coaches and training 
facilities; create a new Technical Department to recruit, select and manage all 
National Team coaches; work for equal pay and equal resources for our women 
athletes; and increase support for all national 

[Goanet] Parrikar To Return

His first order of business on returning should be to report to the people of

what is the amount so far.

[Goanet] ELECTRIC VEHICLES WILL CURB POLLUTION

[Stephen Dias]

ELECTRIC VEHICLES
WILL CURB POLLUTION

STEPHEN DIAS, DONA PAULA

A recent study conducted by the Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB)
has revealed alarming proportions of air pollution due to vehicular
emission as well as industrial activity. Levels of particulate matter 10
microns and 2.5 microns are very high in and around the Mormugao Port Trust
area in the port city of Vasco due to coal dust pollution as well as in the
cities like Panaji, Mapusa, Ponda and the Industrial estates of Kundaim,
Cuncolim and Tuem. It is also a matter of concern that the population to
vehicle proportion in Goa is now almost 1:1. To curtail air pollution in
cities it may be highlighted that prospective buyers should phase out their
old vehicles running on petrol and diesel and instead purchase electric
vehicles with both 2-wheelers and 4-wheelers being available at rates of
Rs. 30,000/- and Rs. 7,00,000/- respectively. Also all electrical vehicles
are subsidized and do not have to pay road tax which is about 8% ti 9%.
Also electric vehicles do not have to pay registration and licensing fees.
These electric vehicles are ideal for those two wheelers doing 30-40
kilometers a a day and four-wheelers doing 70 to 80 kilometers day.
Traditional notions to buy only petrol and diesel vehicles should not
become an impediment since electric vehicles in the long run are
environment friendly as well as cheaper to maintain as also reduces
emissions of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen
oxides which cause acid rain and contribute to water pollution.
