And if VJ can't get the River Princess moved from outside his Villa what hope do we have for him to be able to do anything else to help us.

His fights to UK are excellent.

Hi Bagaboy I think you should be addressing Daff not me,I just agree with Daff 100%.However I am very interested with regards to your point of view.I do agree that India has laws regarding the purchase of property in India, which for us comes under the FEMA act.Unfortunately Goa as put their own slant on this law stopping many of us from registering property and others not being able to get out of Goa by selling because life has been made so difficult for them. This has left many of us wide open to the greedy builders who are buying back the properties at reduced rates.FNS have not been able to get their money out of India and just leave you to what you want, Goa for Goan's.Which you are welcome to.But give us back what we rightfully paid for the property.
Im afraid it is a little late for the theme parks etc,I would say your infrastructure is your first priority.Daff is right.The working class Goan will not benefit from 5 star tourism,they don't eat in shacks use taxis or shop locally.With regards to our Government helping we all know this isn't going to happen,neither is your Government going to help us.I have been down both routes and exhausted it,One of your Government ministers who was approached on our behalf was not interested only if there was 10 lakh in it for him:thumbdown:
.Goa is finished with regards to tourism, with it's racist remarks against the people that tried so hard to help.It is the local people I feel for as they will gain nothing from your Government policies or the Government that is in.Goa is rotten with corruption
Be careful what you wish for Goa, you may get it. All who are buying property in Goa are the very migrants as the Goan call them, the very people they say they don't want in the state.My love affair with Goa is over after 20 years of loyalty.Where did it get me? I have ended up loosing my sanity my hard earned saving and will probably have to work till I am 80yrs of age before I can retire and will end up a bitter and twisted old person . Where is Goa's loyalty to us.:thumbdown::curse:
If you are trying to help I do appreciate your efforts though It doe's set me wondering why?

Ah! I thought we might be talking about Vijay Mallya -
I'm supporting him financially right now:-
cheers (_)? (_)? (_)?
... but not politically 'cos he's BJP and they are far too hand in glove with the right-wing fascist nutters.

To address a couple of bagaboys other points:
Quite so (not Goan law please note!)
I offer you the same challenge as I made to another poster a few months ago:
What is your understanding of Indian law as it relates to the purchase of property by resident foreign nationals?
and what is your take on the FEMA definition of 'resident in India'?
Indeed it was - they passed a retrospective Ordinance to try and get around a Supreme Court judgment!

Oh - and Cheers (_)? (_)? AndyD 8-)#

We don't think that the majority of the people on the London streets were there to have a party bagaboy :sneaky: What's more people were warned all week via all the media outlets not to go to London this week. Didn't see too many police with metal canes beating the c**p out of people at the Notting Hill carnival last year. They probably lifted a few drug pushers but good luck to them. That's something else that Goa has consistently failed to get to grips with :thumbdown:
If you think that the likes of VJM are going to help us when even our own government won't, then you are either in cloud cuckoo land or you are an alien. You live in a dream - we live with the reality :curse::curse:

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
 

This was in the Sunday Times news paper for the last two weeks the Times have published articles about Goa,this isn't going to do tourism any good what so ever,this combined with the threat of more terrorism attacks will finish Goa with regards to UK tourism

Bagaboy, welcome to the site, all points of view are appreciated, although you must be living in cloud coo coo land if you think VJ can help us when his own garden is being eroded by the River Princess which is been outside his villa for near 10 years. Who is going to speak to Mickey, we have enough problems, not being able to sell our Villa without speaking out and having our visa's withdrawn. Deeds Registered, Director of Environment inquiry, and being invited to appear before the D of E what a wonderful season.

The local people have no idea what the foreigners are going through, but they are now asking why not so many people are coming to Goa. They had no idea the property and visa issue.

Next year it is going to be even worse, but then they will blame the credit crunch, Mumbai bombings anything except, the service
and harassment foreigner are having

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
 

I have signed up to a few on line petitions to the prime minister, is it worth trying this to try and get some help from our government? I have no idea how to get one set up but someone reading this may know how to go about it. Alternatively we could get together, set up a bank, loose loads of someone else's money and then our government would take notice and help!

German minor's rape: Rohit granted permission to travel abroad
31 Mar 2009, 1301 hrs IST, PTI

Okay, so Rohit is out on bail at the moment after a week or so in police custody at Panjim, and an individual remains innocent until proven guilty. So he is only an alleged rapist and paedophile at the moment, but he is under criminal charge. Bail had originally been granted on the condition that he surrendered his passport and did not attempt to leave India.

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/C...ow/4330635.cms

"The accused wants to visit Dubai and England."

Question is, should the UK government and visa authorities be sanctioning the visit of persons to the UK from foreign countries publicly known to be out on bail while facing serious criminal charges?

It was bad enough that Churchill Alemao, then Goa Minister of Law, was entertained last year at the Houses of Parliament while also chargesheeted with numerous charges including fraud, theft and forgery.

Are not Rohit's parents, Babush and Jennifer Monserrate also nefarious characters, even if they maintain political office through documented corruption of the electoral process and also being known criminals? (e.g. their mob assault on Panjim police station, the Talegao riot, taking bribes from Russians in order to facilitate illegal land conversions in Pernem).

Surely, a more rigorous vetting procedure by HM Government is required so as to disallow the entry of such undesirables to the UK, and to protect UK citizens?

Is this not a story for The Daily Mail or News of the World??

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
 

I 100% agree but the UK accept everyone,how could we get this to our news papers:curse:

On behalf of myself and probably many others{ to those who may not agree,my apologies}
