We had roads for the transportation we had at that time. We had foreign luxury cars like Mercedes, Wolseley, Consul, Morisminor, etc. We had drainage system We had Muslims, Hindus and Christians living in harmony We were God fearing regardless of Religions.

We were not cheated like how we are cheated now with money, property, etc. People helped each other We dressed well for occasions and ceremonies with a complete suit –now ? We had the dignity as a Goan identity – what we have lost today. We had good laws to benefit women after marriage. We have the Gaumkars, Zondkars & both as title for shares, still enjoying it. We could not build Goa well as there was no resources and we were kept aside as if a Lion need to be caught so starve him from food to have him hungry and and starve him from luxury to get his greed to a peak so he accepts, and catch him when he is weak then.

I am a Goan but working in the Gulf; everytime I visit Goa during my vacation, it is very depressing to see the state Goa is in now, compared to my childhood days.
