I posted the link on Tripadvisor - they removed it!

I posted the link on Holiday Truths - a moderator removed it, then re-instated it on an out of the way thread that very few people view.

So no help from T.A. or H.T. then!

Thanks Mywaygoa :thumbup:

Quote from UKIBC new Chairperson Patricia Hewitt MP

1. What encourages you about the Anglo-Indian economic and trade relationship? Can the positive momentum we are seeing be sustained?

I'm very bullish about the UK - Indian trade relationship. With the UK and other developed countries in recession, India is one of the few major economies that is still growing, and growing substantially, even allowing for the impact of the global downturn. So there's a real opportunity for British SMEs and entrepreneurs :eek::blink: to find new markets in India over the next year - and UKIBC is ideally placed to help them.

She can be contacted at her Westminster office on 0207 219 4180

Email [email protected]

Perhaps she MAY like to hear our side of the story ?

Hi Noni,

Their conection must be down,

To All,

Please see this from the GV ( A very big thanks to the editor Eddie Fernandes :thumbsup:)

"UK citizens petition Gordon Brown over Goa land
22 Jun: NDTV. Several British citizens who bought property in Goa have petitioned Prime Minister Gordon Brown to request the Indian government to resolve the impasse in which properties purchased by foreign nationals were not being registered. Over 125 people have signed it … The petition notes "Around 50,000 persons of Goan birth or descent now live in the UK. The Petitioners hope that they are happy here and are treated fairly and justly, and ask only that the government of Goa should extend the same courtesies to the few hundreds of foreign nationals who are full or part time residents of Goa… 376 words. Click here.
The Petition can be supported by any British citizen or UK resident. To stand up and be counted, click here. " quoted from the Goan Voice UK :thumbsup:

You need to view the GV - I dont know how to create the link :unsure:

Hi everyone, I've just joined the site and also signed the petition. I nearly fell fro an Acron sales ply a few years ago, but decided against it. So glad I did!
