MISCHIEF IN HOTEL GOAN HERITAGE.
By: Special
Correspondent.
Hotel Goan HERITAGE is
the unique project of expatriate Goans built by the Goans working in Kuwait, about
30 years back. The architect of this
Hotel project built under Gulf Goans Hotels Company, was the most dynamic Goan in Kuwait in particular and in the Gulf in general, Mr. Vincente D’Souza. Since the establishment of GGHC and starting
of the Hotel Goan Heritage at Ghauravaddo, Calangute, it is the first time now that worst crisis are
seen brewing in the company management.
During the last Board members election, according to the available
information, due to manipulation and
chicanery by the Chairman and his cohorts, one of them is already expired
recently, the results of the election is held in abeyance for ROC to take the
final decision. This final decision may
take a long time but meantime four candidates contested the last election and
declared elected first, are still
out of the Board.
In view of this, the
Board is functioning almost half of its capacity thereby hampering the progress
of the Hotel. To make the matters worse,
according to the information received, the idiotic minded Chairman Justin Fernandes from Saligao issued an instruction
to the remaining Directors mostly belonging to the opposite camp NOT TO ENTER
THE HOTEL PREMISES thus debarring them from participating in the decision
making.
In view of this, the Hotel and the company is
managed by only two directors headed by the idiotic minded Chairman who is
totally unfit to be in his position.
Physically he is sick suffering from different sicknesses including
Cardiac arrest and mentally he is not very sound, he is almost 80 which means
his mental faculty must have been corroded to be on that post. Because of his sickness and inefficiency on
the job in Kuwait he was not recalled by his Kuwait management after the
liberation of Kuwait while even a Peon was recalled. This man is ruining the progress of the
Hotel, he is not interested in anything but only to receive his monthly
emoluments of 50 thousand rupees with everything found including booze but
minus official concubine. This man fit to be a Peon without proper educational
and administrative background, by being the chairman is acting like a feudal
lord. He cannot talk properly nor conduct meetings and yet shamelessly
occupying the hot seat to be controlled thru remote control by another idiot
director Wilson Coelho.
According to the latest
information, Wilson Coelho who is a self-appointed deputy to the chairman
without official sanction is preparing the
groundwork to give extension of another 5 years to that unfit “Mataro” Justine
Fernandes with an increase in salary of Rs. 25,000/-. Why this extension? Is it to allow Wilson Coelho to grab full power
of the Hotel management? Are there no
directors in the Board to occupy the Chairman’s post? Shareholders must now rise in unison to
oppose this move when this proposal comes to them in the next emergency general
body meet in June 1st week.
Shareholders must refuse their proxies for this extension. Also the Shareholders must now only think to
throw out Wilson Coelho from the Board by knocking him down in the next
election which is due very shortly.
This Wilson Coelho is
responsible to create a rift among Goans in Kuwait. He was responsible to destroy other Goan associations in Kuwait. He is the most destructive man among all the
Kuwait Goans. He was a scandalous man involving
in Sex and finance scandals in Kuwait. He is supported blindly by the highest
shareholder from Kuwait Mr. Sam Alphonso who should be held responsible for all
the wrong doings of Coelho. Alphonso is
a late comer in the hotel being a non-Goan from Karnataka. He never supported the Goan movement in
favour of Kuwait’s liberation when Kuwait was invaded by Iraq though he earned
millions from Kuwait. All are aware that
he is ungrateful to Kuwait.
The present Chairman
along with Wilson Coelho is unable to increase the business by creating more
Hotel Outlets as other Hoteliers are doing.
There is no improvement in the Hotel business since the present shameless “Matharo” Chairman took over the Chairmanship. His inefficiency is a financial burden on the Hotel. Since last two Board Meetings Chairman and
Wilson are hiring the services of Bouncers to protect them, from whom?
Are these two crook Board members so important to give them such a
protection by paying exorbitant fees to the Bouncers? Shareholders must know that company’s money is
frittered away by these two who by no means should be kept in the Board because
they are both cunning.
The shareholders if
they want to protect their Hotel project and their investment then they must
refuse extension to Chairman whose term expires very shortly and secondly they must vote Wilson Coelho out of the Board in the election due shortly. His
one leg is in Canada and the other is in Goa, such persons should not be in the
Board. Outstation Shareholders must
avoid giving their proxies in favour of extension to Justine Fernandes who
being unfit will surely destroy Hotel Goan Heritage. He is a shameless man. At least his family members if they have any shame, must tell him to say bi-bi to the extension.
