CONDEMNING BRUTAL KILLINGS IN FRANCE.

In strongest terms, I condemn the brutal killings of unarmed mediamen in France two days ago by the Islamic terrorists in the name of Islam, as given to understand.  I don’t know if Islam allows this type of brutal retaliatory acts, neither I know the brand of Islam these terrorist are propagating.  Islam according to me is a great religion, the religion of love, peace, forgiveness and compassion but by committing acts of terrorism the Muslim terrorists give a very harsh and bad image of Islam which very much affects the greatness of Islam.  It is here that Christianity scored over Islam by propagating in its true Christian principle the doctrine of love, peace, compassion and forgiveness in non-retaliatory manner.   

One of the main aspects of Islam is freedom to express oneself boldly but this freedom of expression was boldly damaged but not killed by the Muslim terrorists in France, the country that gave to the world the slogans of Equality – Liberty – Fraternity.  France is a great country that gave birth to the great freedom loving genius Voltaire who once said,  “I fully disagree with what you say but I will do everything within my capacity to allow you to express yourself freely, if necessary even by facing death I will allow you this freedom of expression though I fully disagree with what you express”.

By this harsh act of terrorism if these Muslim terrorists think they can kill the freedom of expression in France then they are sadly mistaken.  On the contrary they encouraged free expression more forcefully not only in France but all over the globe including in me. 

While this act of terrorism committed in France, the silence of Saudi King the custodian of Two Hoy Mosques  is intriguing.  So also of many other Muslim Kings and Sheikhs who were responsible in supporting this type of terrorism. They are partly responsible for promoting terrorists in this world by supporting this  brutal ideology.

I also condemn the previllege of freedom taken by the journalists and Cartoonists to mock Islam or any other religion.  No religion is bad and no religion tells to do bad things but it is the religious leaders and propagators who are guilty of giving distorted image of their religions to fulfill their personal anger. It is these people who should be mocked.

ONE YEAR IN GOA.

It is exactly a year ago that I returned to my homeland Goa for good after working in Kuwait for over three decades. I take this opportunity to thank almighty God to allow me to complete  ONE YEAR in Goa while this gift of one year was not given to many of my friends and colleagues.  God was benevolent for me while not for many,  some of whom did not even get ONE DAY to spend in Goa as retired life.  

During my last one year in Goa, I noticed chaos and disorder almost everywhere, disorder  on the roads, disorder on the Ferryboat, disorder in family life, disorder in married life, disorder in the Church functioning, disorder in government functioning, disorder in tourism related activities and disorder in everything in Goa.

During the last one year I noticed many of my former Kuwaitcar colleagues now settled down in Goa are living as non-entities though in Kuwait they were acting like Lords as if Kuwait was their fathers property. Their prideful life in Kuwait is turned into pitiful life in Goa inspite of having lot of money in their possession. Their money power is nothing in Goa, they are craving for sense of identity in Goa for this reason many of them especially the sinful and arrogant ones in Kuwait now joined Chruch activities because this is the only place for such persons to get cheap publicity and cheap prominence. By their Church activities, they are destroying the sanctity of the Church.

During the last one year I noticed elected representatives especially the locals are become corrupt, revengeful and retaliatory as seen in my locality.  By using the public platform they are quenching their thirst of personal revenge when they should know that they are elected to serve public cause and not to go on personal revenge rampage.  They made money as their God for which they will do anything.   When public figures are involved in corrupt life then the entire society is turning into corrupt society and precisely because of this our beautiful Goan society degenerated into chaotic society.   Pristine human values of Goans are become extinct in Goa;  children do not respect parents, youngsters do not care for elders, wives do not adore their husbands, everyone aping for foreign ways of life which contradict our ways.  Splits in wedded life is rampant and divorces are become purchasable commodities if you are in good touch with your local priests who can easily purchase you official Church divorce from Altinho which is ruled by the Satanic influenced leaders.

During the last one year I noticed that every segment of Goan society is captured by the non-Goans and migrants leading to the completion of degoanisation process of Goa which is going to be a sad part of my beloved Goa.

While concluding, for my Kuwaitcar brothers and sisters  now based in Kuwait,  try to purchase Goa by purchasing available land in Goa and if you are financially strong enough, do return to Goa and involve in small scale business of your choice. Now is the only chance for us Goans to take control and possession of the last remaining avenues in Goa otherwise what is little left of Goa will also be swallowed by the outsiders who are become more insiders now than the insiders themselves.                 

May God Save Our Goa.

CONGRESS SHOULD DISCARD CORRUPT CANDIDATES.

That Mr. Luzinho Faleiro the president of Congress Party in Goa has decided to quit election contesting politics and concentrate only on the development of the party is a good decision.  However, if he took this decision only on the advice of Sonia Gandhi or after getting convinced that his chances in his own constituency Navelim and even elsewhere in Goa are Nil, will have to be ascertained.  This decision of Luizinho Faleiro looks more or less like that of Kamaraj Plan and as such I can rightly dub it as Luzinho Faleiro Plan.

 

 

I know Luizinho Faleiro from the time he changed from Congress Party to Goa Congress along with Dr. Willie, Tomazinho Cardoso and others.  His love for Goa and Goan causes is unquestionable but will he be able to succeed in his mission with the current crook, revengeful, arrogant, selfish and corrupt Congressmen around him as we have one below my nose?  I doubt very much.  Since the ouster of his predecessor John Fernandes,  Congress Party in Goa has lost much of its shine and credibility.  John Fernandes made it clear thru his actions against some corrupt Congressmen that Congress will not entertain corrupt persons in its fold thereby sending a clear signal that Congress was underway to rejuvenate.

 

 

However, since Luizinho Faleiro taking over the party reins the feeling one gets is totally different.  If Congress party in Goa wants resurrection from the grave then Luizinho Faleiro must immediately declare openly and loudly that there is no place in Congress for the traitors, old guards and defeated candidates to contest the next election.  Congress Party’s monopoly is rested not on to the shoulders of Congress Low Command and High Command from Panjim and Delhi respectively. Luizinho Faleiro must not ignore the opinions of the genuine Congressmen who are responsible to vote for Congress candidates.  Last time the feelings and opinion of genuine Congressmen were ignored resulting in heavy defeat for Congress candidates who should in no way be re-nominated unless Luizinho Faleiro wants to fail himself in his new mission and also fail the Congress Party.

 

 

It is my sincere wish to see Luizinho Faleiro succeeds in his Plan for reviving the Congress Party prospects but to attain this success he must take into confidence the opinion of the hard core Congressmen who should not be bypassed in selecting the suitable candidates to contest the next election.  It is a hard fact that some candidates with the help of the money power collected thru corrupt practices, pour crores of rupees into the pockets of the High Command Babus to dole them the election tickets because under Congress culture election tickets are become saleable commodity to the highest bidders. Luizinho Faleiro must give a feeling that money power will not play the role in doling out the election tickets.  The High Command is so crazy after money that even at the last moment it will change its stand against the appropriate candidates and give the election tickets to the highest bidders.  For this reason Congress lost miserably in Goa in the last election. 

 

 

In my constituency which till recently was the strong citadel of Congress Party, the candidate representing Congress Party in the next election should be the one who is known to live a humble, polite, simple, moral and non-revengeful life.  We in our constituency will surely oppose any candidate who is corrupt and known to take bribe, hafta and live an immoral life.  Luizinho Faleiro should now take maximum care while selecting the Congress candidates who should not be imposed on the people.
