EXPORT DUTY HIKE WILL RUIN GOAN ECONOMY Looks like the MP Naik is suffering from an acute bout of constipation, one day he come out with a good article with overwhelming thoughts of Goa and Goans and the next thing we hear absurdity and profanity oozing out of him. His statement that increase in the export duty on ore could ruin Goa’s economy is hard to digest that it’s coming from a liberal mind. Monetary gains over the quality of life or life itself of the people at large.
I would like to remind MP Naik that what’s in the underbelly of Goa belongs to all Goans to be used for the benefit of all Goans and not the prerogative of one or a handful of persons, what’s in the underbelly of Goa is not their maternal nor paternal inheritance nor their acquirements, by the virtue of being Goans we are entitled to the national wealth and treasures of Goa.
His ignorance comes to the fore as he tries to justify income generation for private entities over the welfare of large parts of Goa which are directly affected by the ills of mining and their miseries multiplied and magnified. In reality the whole of Goa could be affected if remedial steps are not taken to preserve and protect our environment, ecology and our water bodies, where water tables have sunk to an all time low and our rivers and their tributaries silted and marine life fast disappearing, forests have been eaten up, fields are made barren and left scorched, by the mining dust and I am astounded that MP Mr. Naik has the time and the luxury to even contemplate on the income generation for a few elite.
MP Naik should live in hinterland where both legal as well as illegal mining thrives, for a month or so and then, may be he would realize the agony and the misery that the people in hinterland are mired in as a direct result of mining. Can MP Naik get his priorities right or has he already got them right ? As support for the mining industry, could generate personal wealth as well as funds for the next election. Who are the poor suckers here?

Sorry Mr. Fernandes.
As a Goykar I do not support GRA.
Reasons- it has political party coloursand does not tackled the root cause of Goa's problems.
I would be interested to know the backgrounds of the cheif promoters of GRa and their funding sources.

MY SUPPORT TO 'GOENCHEA RAKHONDARANCHO AWAZ'.
GOENCHEA RAKHONDARANCHO AWAZ.
Xetkarano, zotkarano, gheiat tumcheo koiteo ani lagat zogddonk,
Zogoddtana tumkam kainch zanvchena luskon
Zalear fokot zatelem Koitechem luskonn
Pun eit zalear mas zoit etelem lotton.
These were the awakening words used by Karl Marx in his communist manifesto Das Kapital. Thru these words he excited the proletarians to take up arms to fight against the injustice done to the peasants. For this reason he asked the peasants to fight with their Sickles.
Based on Karl Marx’s words, from Kuwait I call upon all our Goa based Goans as:
Goychea mojea Goykarando,
Uttat ani lagat Ponjechea Azad Moidonar cholonk
15ver sanjeachea 3.00 horancher Goyam passot zoggdonk,
Hem zogddem zogoddtana tumkam kainch zaunchena luskonn,
Zalear fokot zatelem 3 horanchem luskonn
Pun mellot tor melltelem zoitachem vhoddpon
Zantun Goem dourunk zatelem nitoll.
From Kuwait, on behalf of all my like minded friends and colleagues I strongly support the move under Goemchea Rakhonddarancho Awaz for the meeting at Azad Maidan Panaji, Goa. This is the good opportunity for the Goa lover Goans to show their disgust on the corruption going on in Goa with the consent of the Government machinery and Ministers and other politicians. This is the best opportunity to awaken the people’s conscience against corruption going on in Goa.
Those who feel it is useless to organize such meetings are living in fool’s paradise. If by shouting one cannot get anything then by keeping silence by sleeping at home can one get anything? I think this is the right way to awaken people who are fed up of current corrupt Goa.
From Kuwait, their financial contribution was assured by Kuwait Konknni Kendr while others are silent. That they are all silent is known but that any of the other Goan associations has contributed anything is still not known. It is very sad to know that some of our Kuwait Goans and Goan associations in order not to antagonize their corrupt God father politicians in Goa and to please them are refraining from supporting GRA. I am not surprised to know this attitude of our Kuwait Goans but what good one can expect from them when they themselves are corrupt and selfish? For this reason they are supporting corrupt politicians’ policies in Goa who are against this meet organized under GRA.
In the past we had in Kuwait among us many Goans having great love for clean life, corruption free but those Goans from Kuwait now are dwindling. Now we have more SELFISH AND CORRUPT Goans among us for this reason they accept money from corrupt Goan politicians and shamelessly claiming to be the leaders of Kuwait Goans. I oppose their leadership. I will never accept the leadership of such pimps. In the past our Goan associations were manned by great Goan stalwarts having great love for Goa and Goans but now some of our Associations are manned by rascal Goans who will sell Goa to the highest bidders. Those who got no love for clean Goa they have no right to call themselves Goans and they have no right to name their associations after Goa.
Finally what good one can expect from Kuwait Goans who are chamchas of corrupt Goan politicians?While concluding I once again announce my total support to GRA in their initiative to organize a public meeting on 15th of this month at Azad Maidan Panjim, to denounce corruption in Goa.
