DADAGIRI IN GGHC - HOTEL GOAN HERITAGE.


By: Special Correspondent.


This is in reference to the communication dated 30th April, 2015, from Gulf Goans Hotels Company Ltd., signed by A.W. Coelho as VICE CHAIRMAN, to the shareholders.

First of all it should be known that A. W. Coellho means Alex Wilson Coelho from Curtorim and settled in Canada.  He worked in Kuwait for over three decades and is one of the Shareholders of Gulf Goans Hotels Co. Ltd.  Currently he is one of the directors but definitely NOT VICE CHAIRMAN of the Board. If he is a real Vice Chairman then he should prove it by evidence the Board resolution electing him as Vice Chairman.  Officially with the concerned authority his name is not registered as Vice Chairman and as such he is telling lies and such liars are not fit to be in the Board. Is Sam Alphonso decent enough to investigate this mischief of Coelho?  Otherwise he should withdraw his backing for Coelho.

Alex Wilson Coelho is a sexually perverted man.  A few years back in Kuwait he arranged a job for a young Goan girl and then demanded sex from her.  When her mother came to question him during one of the public meetings she rattled him openly but he was dumb,  silently accepting his guilt with shame.  In view of this, can this man be trusted in the Board?  Even the modesty of the girls employed in this company and especially in Hotel Goan Heritage is in danger.  If Sam Alphonso is a man of character then he will dissociate from Coelho.  Only sexually perverted men will support men like Coelho.

Alex Wilson Coelho was one of the main person in the association called Kuwait Goan Evacuees Society formed following the invasion of Kuwait.  This society took the responsibility on its shoulders to send  the Kuwait evacuees back to Kuwait on their previous jobs.  For this purpose this Society asked the Kuwait evacuees to fill some forms for a certain amount as fees which when accumulated came to lakhs of rupees.  Finally this amount where it went nobody knew but none of the evacuees who filled these forms was sent to Kuwait by this Society.  In this way Alex Wilson Coelho and his gang duped the Kuwaiti evacuees with their money.  Can anyone trust this Alex Wilson Coelho in the Board as director? Can Sam Alphonso trust such a man in the board?  Sam Alphonso is making a big blunder of his shares by trusting this Alex Wilson Coelho whose record as far as money is concerned is very bad.

Up to now he is not disclosing where about the huge fund of now defunct Kuwait Goan Association  of which he was the leading member.

In the same communication as indicated above, this A.W. Coelho asked the shareholders to give their mandate to the Chairman Justine Fernandes for another 5 years.  But is this A.W. Coelho received the mandate from his Board to go to the shareholders  for this extension?  I know for sure this subject was not fully debated in the Board and  as such he is wrong, he is acting as if the Board is his father’s property.  Can Sam Alphonso tell if this is right on Coelho’s part.  And what about the Board members?  Are they sleeping?  They are elected by the Shareholders to protect the interest of their shares and as such they must act in such a way that A. W. Coelho must be stopped from taking action unilaterally.  If necessary, Board members must take recourse to legal means otherwise he will dupe the share holders.

It is according to the information,  his idea to extend the term of Chairman Justino Fernandes to another 5 years.  Why this extension for a man who is not sound physically and mentally also?  Nobody can trust this man to do justice to his extension and that too for the increased remunerations totaling to Rs. 75,000.00?  Both these Coelho and Justin by acting like dictators will destroy the Hotel.  They have questionable characters.  Is Sam Alphonso reading this?  He will be held responsible for any disaster in the Hotel because of his blind support for these two crooks. Why such a push to Justin’s extension when he has already finished his term?  Is he a genius in Hotel administration and management? When he was appointed as Chairman it was done not on merit but to fill the gap after Flav’s retirement.  Otherwise, he is an idiot and for such an idiot only the idiots will demand extension.

Meantime, anyone from the Board or Shareholders must lodge a complaint with the ROC against the illegalities going on in the Board of GGHC Ltd.  If you allow A.W. Coelho a little elasticity to do what he wants, he may even sell the Hotel without anybody’s notice and disappear from Goa.  Such a cunning man is he.  Shareholders must rise now in unison and control the moves of Coelho thru legal procedure.  And the Shareholders spread around the globe must stop giving their proxies to Justin’s extension if they want betterment of their Hotel.

MICKEY PACHECO & SALMAN KHAN.


 

While condemning  the lengthy judicial procedure to pronounce the final verdict on two prominent cases, one of Salman Khan and the other of Mickey Pacheco, I feel proud to state that Justice is still alive in India contrary to the opinion expressed by many disappointed Indians.  One thing is certain; to get justice one has to fight for it as Adv. Aires did against Mickey Pacheco.  Who ever thought Mickey Pacheco will face such a disgrace after 10 years of filing a case against him by an Engineer who in a Hitlerian manner was slapped by Mickey Pacheco?
 
What Mickey Pacheco thought of himself that he is the feudal lord to take law into his own hands? During Portuguese time some Bamonn Bhattkars used to deal with their poor Munddkars in a similar manner.  Just because Mickey  was the minister he cannot act like Saddam Hussein.  Even Saddam Hussein faced the wrath and faced the consequences of his sins he committed in Iraq. Good that Ministership is only a temporary phase and not a permanent job otherwise most of the Ministers and MLA’s especially the sons and grandsons of Ladru-Pedru like Micky would terrorise the society.
 
 

What is the opinion of Micky’s secretary/PA who complained of the Engineer to Mickey? Is he not responsible for the disaster of his boss?  These secretays and PA’s mostly coming from hoi-polloi background think too smart for themselves.  They should not put petrol in the fire and those who are  Christians they should be more tolerant in tune with their religious commandments. Otherwise they are disgrace on Christianity.
 
 

Coming back to Salman Khan, pride of money, name and fame has gone to his head making him numb to take care of his rash behavior.  His 5 years sentence may remain suspended for the time being but the peace of his life is totally shattered which will surely affect his future. This will be the biggest sentence passed on him because he has killed an innocent poor man.  His soul might have gone into heaven but Salman Khan’s body till he is alive will suffer as if he is dumped into the hell.
 
 

When Justice Sinha of Allahabad High Court passed his verdict against Indira Ghandi in 1975 by unseating her from the seat she was elected thru fraudulent means, the world hailed Indian judiciary as upright.  In the same way, once again Indian judiciary is hailed for its uprightness when judgement was passed against Mickey Pacheco and Salman Khan even though Khan’s judgment is still reviewable.  That they both with their mighty power failed to purchase the judgments in their favour itself is a big victory for Indian judiciary.
