care for is the free pension. Since the Portuguese were driven out 52 years

Hi Gabe,
It is a profound shame that our Goan brothers and sisters who die without
adequate representation or destitute have to go through such humiliation at

Freedom Fighters
Wandering around aimlessly for some time in Bombay in the early 1950’s, I
stumbled on a selective band of Goans who called themselves freedom fighters
(FF’s).
By and large the FF’s looked a dejected lot, just as I was myself. And that may

Hi Oscar,
I blame all those Goans involved in the events of 61. Recently I
