#1 < CAN the Goan Doctors world wide be of any help to the Goans in Goa and the Goan community at large ? Should they get involved in helping Goans at all ? or should they continuing making their point of view on the Goan Forums we belong to ? Can the Goan Doctors come TOGETHER to work for the betterment of the Goan community ?
#2 <Too many of us on this FORUM take it upon themselves to speak on behalf of Goans in Goa ! we dictate what we Goans on the Forums should do for Goa and Goans there ! WHO are we to do so ? >
#3 < If we REALLY want to get involved in the welfare of Goa and Goans , we need to do so by .....Leading by our example.>
#4 <But then , who am I to advise the Goans ......and more so Goan Doctors ?>

My dear Renebab,
Yep......."There is nothing in TRYING". I will try to respond to your post
wrt #1 : Please try elaborate what you mean by " Goan Doctors coming(sic) TOGETHER to work for the betterment of the Goan community"
I hope you will realize that doctors in Goa have virtually ceded complete control of Medicine to the politicians.
Think about this: IF the Goa CM tells a Head of Department at GMC to ADMIT a person to the ICU for 3 days observation. ...... and the person does NOT need to be in hospital at all, WHAT are the chances that the Head of Department will stand his/her ground, and say a Polite NO ?
Will this happen in the UK?
wrt # 2 : I do not know what is wrong about Goans speaking up for Goans and about Goa. Are you suggesting that Goans in cyberspace exercise self-censorship ?
Maybe we should join the Procession that Floriano and all are having for the Goa-Press
wrt #3 : Please advise us what EXAMPLE we should lead by.
wrt #4: What do you mean by that? You mean Goans cannot advise other Goans ? and Doctors are NOT human being who might benefit from advice?
That is a load of bovine dung, Rene!
