Dear All,
I attended the GGC Convention in Oman and i must say with great pride and
confidence, it was WOW WOW WOW WOW, amazing, mindblowing, awesome , no more
words to express, well co-ordinated team work in true Goan spirit and with
positive agenda in mind thereby seriously focussing on the theme of GGC, it was
just not wine and dine but lots of interesting, constructive , burning topics ,
exchange of ideas, and great respectufl vibrant speakers to begin with NRI
Commissioner Bab Eduardo Faleiro a source of inspiration in many many endless
ways, Mr. Ulhas Kamat, Bab Tomazinho Cardozo, Mr. N. Shivdas, Dr. Oscar Rebello
Dr.Santosh D. Lad, Mr. Nitin Kuncolienkar, Mr..Prajal Sakhardande, Mr. Rajendra
Kerkar, Mr. Arwin Mesquita, Mr. Agnelo Fernandes were other prominent speakers
A great privilege to be associated with a very dynamic, full of support ,
cooperation in every way by the Ambassador of India to Oman H.E Mr. Anil
Wadhwa, he is a gem of a person and i think every Indian Ambassador wherever he
is based in any overseas country should be like H.E Mr. Anil Wadhwa, you meet
such gentlemen very very rarely in the world, unfortunately i never got a chance
to interact with him but his actions speak louder than words and that is what
makes a difference in life.
The Goan hospitality rendered to me by Mr. Celso Fernandes was amazing , no
words to express he went out of his way to make me feel very comfortable and
that is what Goans are known for he is such a wonderful person, Mr.. Flynn De
Lima is another gentlemen full of dedication and committment towards this
Convention and hence his success, Mr. Baltazar, Mr. Allan ,and Mr.. Anthony
Lourence were some of the inspiring Goenkars where one could witness their love
and hard work in making this convention a succes which was indeed a major
success story. Convention Rapporteurs like Mrs. Maria Henriques, Mrs. Mathilda
Mascarenhas, Mrs. Dorothy D'souza and Mrs. Maggie Povo played an important role
too what a Goan spirit, i have really not seen it before .
I would like all the Goan's overseas who are planning to organise such
conventions in the near future to take advise from the organizing committee of
Oman who have done such a splendid job , right from the day one , till the
closure ,everything was well co-ordinated and the ambience was very exuberant ,
food, music , cultural programme, very very hilarious jokes by Mr. Ulhas Kamat
and Dr. Oscar could keep the rythm alive and in short everything was a package.
The Convention Emcee Jocelle Fernandes was just superb handled the show very
well, some young goan boy and the girl who were the Emcee for the next day
gave a superby shot too, and also the two young announcer's for the Dinner and
Dance show .
You must see the educative slide show/presentation on Pre-post Liberation
period of Goa deliverd by Mr. Prajal Sakhardande he is is a genius and
undertook great pains to get this constructive and fruitful information which i
am sure many Goenkars are not aware of it.
I enjoyed it to the fullest and had a wonderful time in Oman a beautiful place
with great Goan minds thinkers who can and i am sure will soon do something good
for Goa , one could witness the curiosity and the eagerness to do a lot for Goa.
The Konkani songs by our great Goan singer Manuxin whom I have known for years ,
has maintained his melodious voice which takes one back to Amchem
Bhangarachem Goa.
My only request to all the Goan's, if we want to save our mother land Goa who
has fed us with her milk and today we are successful due to her sacrifice ,
let's make a positive difference within ourselves first then the rest will
follow in place , let's get united and stand in once voice just like other
communities who have come to Goa and are exceptionally successfull, and remove
the word from our head impossible and move ahead with sacrifices and sing the
song of YES IT IS POSSIBLE and LET'S MAKE A CHANGE
When the time was to leave , i felt sad but with a vision in mind to do
something for our motherland and children of Goa.
The Indian Embassy in Oman is a well respected , reputable five star structure
and that's why it would be an honour or rather a great honour to be associated
with Indian Ambassadors like H.E Mr. Anil Wadhwa, you must get in touch with him
.
God bless and let's work for Goa and Goans. In portuguese they say "A LUTA
CONTINUA " the struggles continues never give up.
