Antonio meu amigo,

 

Its a great article on goa - Kuwait solidarity meet held in Panjim on 26.02.15 to mark the liberation day of Kuwait. The facts cannot be denied,  I was surprised to know that you alone are spending your own money to hold these meetings.  What about others who are living retired life in Goa and those who are still making money in Kuwait?  Are they not grateful to Kuwaiti?  It looks you are the lone voice of Kuwait Goans.

 

keep up the good work.

CONGRATULATON>

BEST WISHES>

A. VERONICA COMMENTS: Thank you Jerry for your good words.  If it was not for me, there would never be Solidarity with Kuwait movement that fetched Kuwait Goans lot of dividends and yet they are shamelessly "BEIMAN".  It is Kuwait that made them something in life.  They talk big and act big but otherwise they are born small and would remain small only if it was not for their employment in Kuwait. In my own village majority of Kuwait Goans ex and current are like Ladrus and Pedrus having no proper home discipline to indicate their gratitude to the country from where they earned so much.  I feel ashamed of their "Ghaum-bhaupon".  

 

Some of the ex and current Kuwait Goans expect me to approach them for help. I am not a beggar to do that and they are not sucking breasts of their mothers to be ignorant to know what it costs to organize such events. One cannot expect something worthwhile from people coming from hoi-polloi class which is of majority of Kuwait Goans.

GOA-KUWAIT SOLIDARITY MEET & KUWAIT GOANS.

A. Veronica addressing the Meet

 

Last month on 26^th, we under Goa-Kuwait Solidarity Center celebrated the liberation day of Kuwait by holding a public meeting in Panjim at the Chamber of Commerce Hall.  The meet was attended by only 70 persons instead of 700 or 7000 and from these 70 persons, half the number from non-Kuwait returnees circle.  Since I returned from Kuwait last year, I am organizing this function to show our gratitude to Kuwait from where we earned our livelihood and established ourselves comfortably financially.

 

Fr. Gabriel Dias seen speaking

 

Some people especially ex Kuwaitkars in Goa are questioning my prerogative to hold these Meetings as if I am committing a sin by doing so.  As a matter of fact to organize these Meets I am alone spending thousands of Rupees from my own pocket, I am not asking any financial help from anyone nor from any of the current Kuwitcars or Kuwait returnees. 

 

 

Manuel Fernandes seen speaking

 

With the intention of sharing even a small portion of expenditure, none even asking me whether any help is needed though they are boasting of their financial empire which they built only because of their employment in Kuwait otherwise many of them would live like paupers. 

 

Prof. Sergio Carvalho 

 

There are thousands of Goans in Kuwait and they are the direct beneficiaries of the goodwill of Kuwaitis in Kuwait of our Meetings in Goa on 26^th February.  Even they are not contributing anything but some of them are talking against holding these meetings. 

 

Peggy Pereira proposing Vote of Thanks

 

Without Kuwait they would be nothing in life. No Indian community is organizing such Meets in India except Goan community for this reason there is more goodwill generated for Goans in Kuwait. Neither any nationality anywhere in the World.

 

Elvino Rodrigues seen speaking

 

What would be the future of overwhelming majority of Kuwait Goans, current and returnees, if it was not for their employment in Kuwait?  They had no  bright future for this reason they should be grateful to Kuwait.  What Goa and India could not provide them, the country Kuwait provided them.

That does not mean in Kuwait Heavenly Mannas are falling for us, that does not mean in Kuwait we are getting easy money, no, we are working very hard with topmost sacrifices with lot of pains and sufferings, with lot of humiliations and insults, yet we are surviving and doing well.  For this reason I am grateful to Kuwait though I too suffered a lot in Kuwait like many and that does not deter me from accepting the truth that if today what I am, it is only because of Kuwait.

 

Observing silence

 

But do our people realize this truth?  Majority of them ”NO”. They are “Beiman” of first grade because they are coming from third rate character without disciplined family background and lacking in moral character. It is a pity to see that the character of these Kuwait Goans present and ex is so bankrupt. There are no greater selfish people in the world as ex and current Kuwait Goans, of course with the exception a few.

 

                                            A section of the crowd attending the Meet.

Even when we organized the public rallies in Panjim following the invasion of Kuwait in 1990, very few people attended this rally because the remaining Kuwait returnees thought it was useless to participate in that rally because Kuwait was already annexed to Iraq. But when we organised the second rally immediately following the liberation of Kuwait overwhelming majority of Kuwait returnees took part in this rally because of selfish motto that is, to return to Kuwait.

BBC DOCUMENTARY - DAUGHTER OF INDIA - NIRBHAYA.

India has banned this documentary Film done by the BBC on the rape of young Indian girl and NOT PAKISTANI GIRL, in December two years back. This ban is confined only to India and not outside India because Indian jurisdiction is applicable only in India and not to the land of BBC and as such BBC and other sovereign countries are free to act the way they want. And BBC land has already acted the way it wanted by telecasting this film from where the interested persons thru U-Tube  distributed everywhere.  I saw it last night on 5^th midnight and I found nothing wrong in it nor derogatory nor anti-Indian.  On the contrary I found it very informative and educative that gives a very good lesson for the would be rape victims.

According to the Documentary, the victim girl was so ferociously resisted this rape that she even slapped one of the accused to prevent him from touching her body that angered the rapists more.  While in the beginning immediately after entering the Bus, one of the accused asked the victim girl why she is so late and that too with the boy.  Infuriated by this poser, the girl  answered bluntly that insulted the accused.  This was the flashpoint on the part of the accused to take the law into their own hands violently.

The lesson to learn here is: “never to antagonize your perpetrator" or rapist because he is possessed by animal power which by all means he will apply to put you into submission even by maiming your body or killing you.  For this reason Gorge Bernard Shaw remarked wittily thus, “When rape is unavoidable, the girl should just lie down and enjoy”. If there is resistance then there is no surety of avoiding neither rape nor physical assault.

There was uproar in the Parliament in India by the ruling party and more by the Home Minister against this Documentary citing an excuse that it is defaming India’s  image abroad. But in reality, the image of India is already destroyed beyond repairs by the nonsensical decisions taken by the BJP government, namely harassment for minorities especially for Christians, Ghar Wapsi, Non-Fulfillment of promises made before the last general election by Modi, break-down of Law and Order etc.  In the eyes of foreigners the image of India is already tarnished for this reason during his last visit to India, president Obama rapped Indian gontvernment for its harassment for minorities, meaning Christians because when Christians are hurt naturally the West is hurt because West is dominated by the Christians.  That has finally made Modi to assure the minorities in general  and Christians in particular all the protection of the government.

The value of India in the eyes of foreigners one comes to know when an Indian travelling abroad hands over his Passport to the Emigration officer who in many cases accepts it with disdain and ugly looks and not thru the telecast of BBC Documentary.  By suppressing the release of BBC Documentary in India, the government of India suppressed the democratic rights of its citizens.  This is a murder of Democracy of the type of Emergency rule of Indira Gandhi.  I cannot accept the fact that BJP government can stoop to so low to ban this film just as Congress government banned the “Satanic Verses” of Sulman Rushdie.  BJP government is acting worse than Congress.  For this reason, all the freedom loving Indians must start the movement to unseat BJP governments not only at the Centre but even in the States including Goa.  Seeing all these suppressions, I feel Emergency Rule is on the way.

ZILLA PARISHAD ELECTION.

This is in reference to the coming Zilla Parishad election and the moves by the interested persons and political parties to get their candidates elected. According to my limited knowledge, the Zilla Parishad is powerless in exercising its power on anything concretely and yet there is so much of clamouring on the part of the candidates to get elected.  Is it a prestigious issue to be a member of powerless Zilla Parishad? 

In my Calangute constituency as per the available report, selection of the candidates has been finalized.  One of them is by BJP the party that is vomiting its venom on minorities in general and Christians in particular. It is a time now for overwhelming majority of Calangute constituents belonging to minority community to question the BJP why it is letting loose its hatred towards Christians when Christians in the last election have already indicated their affiliation to BJP.  If the same momentum is maintained in favour of BJP in the coming ZP election as it was done last time, then I am sure BJP will double its fury against Christians to show its originality of ingratitude.  This has to be stopped by curtailing the march of BJP any further for BJP to put an end to its anti-Christian march.  The salvo should be fired for this ZP election against BJP to send an advance warning to BJP to take care of its prospects in 2017. I can now only make my own prophecy and rightly predict that 2012 will never be repeated for BJP anymore. For BJP, 2012 is R.I.P.   

Congress as reported in the media is contesting this ZP election thru remote control by fielding a lightweight entity in the constituency, he must tell the constituents why they should vote for him and what was his contribution in the development of the constituency, leave aside his village. Though he is backed by his local Panchayat yet he must know that his Congress led Panchayat has made mess of his village because of this his local Congress boss was defeated in the last 2012 election. His Panchayat team headed by the local leader is now going around in his village begging for votes for their candidate.  Voters are asking a question to the candidate: “Are you going to be revengeful and vindictive just as your boss and Congress leader, if you are elected?”

The third candidate is backed by Calangute Panchayat.  Now my question to all of them: What will they do once elected in their constituency and how? What is their manifestoes and power to proceed further?  Who are their financiers and how will they recover the money they spend for their elections? What is their advice to the voters who will refuse to go to the voting Booths thinking that it is useless to vote for them because ZP is a powerless impotent body.
