Are Niz Goans really awake?

In Goa, day in and day out, we see people changing their words and slowly weakening our unique Goan identity. Instead of protecting our Goaness, some spend their energy, time, and money pulling down our own priests, good Samaritans, and activists. They create and circulate videos and audios, and others quickly support them. They do not speak about important issues like the land mafia, blame games within the ruling party, tourists creating trouble, flooding, traffic chaos, parking problems, or the unchecked growth of new projects across each taluka. Many young Goans are migrating abroad, but these matters are ignored. Sometimes I wonder if these people are being paid to spread such videos and damage the image of those working to protect Goa and Goykarponn. They call themselves activists, but if they truly are, why can’t they raise other issues that are harming our Goan identity?
