Illusions of the Mind

Prabhakar Timble

Putting a limit and saying enough to need as well as to greed comes spontaneously to a Goan. These are the same reasons why Goans are tied to Goa, why Indians crave for shelter and neighbourhood in Goa and also why foreigners find this damsel attractive. (The Fragrance of Goa).


Goa is neither the Rome of the East, nor the Kashi of the South. Goa is neighbour's envy, owner's pride. "Asmitai" is Goa's poly-culture. To live in harmony with nature and people respecting the freedom and privacy of individual comes naturally to a NizGoenkar. (Goa Opinion Poll) .


If any Indian State has to be nominated for an award for people's opposition to any type of development or any project or any growth plan, Goa will not face any competition. (The Threat of Negative Activism)


Will Goa hit the jackpot in economic growth or tumble down losing everything it stands for? I would say it's never too late to find a better way. (Casinos: Jackpot or blindness for Goa)


Countries and States which are open to migrants will prosper faster. This is truer in respect of skilled migration. In today's modern times, we should dethrone the Brain Drain theory and evolve the Global Gain approach. The Son of the Soil or Bhumiputra approaches within States in a nation would restrict national gain. (Migration in Goa: Gains and Concerns).


The present studies show that the splitting of traffic of the two airports will make both uneconomical.....The best option is one airport. If we want to go with the two airport model, we should not do it in a hurry without a development strategy in place to keep the two burners on fire. (Airport: One Enough Two Not Yet).
