Most of the men & women (I am not saying all) go there to get all three.We have beaches in Mumbai, why do we need Goa.
It is not at all a hit place for vegetarians, setting up Industry as the local population dont believe in hard work and Gujarati Jains.
Kerala Kovalam Beach is 100 times better. Mostly lower level foreigners visit goa and beaches in diu (Gujarat).The cops turn a blind eye to all illegal activities as they get their dose of haftas and sex.

yes All Stuff is easily available in Goa, Kodaikanal, Ooty, Kulu Manali...What is the fuss All cops are on the payroll of the drug peddlers. If U visit Goa U can get it on any of the luxury yachts and will wonder what the law makers/protectors are doing ? Do U recall the episode to Dubai airport wherein Prasad Bidapa was arrested in Dubai on charges of possessing narcotic substances Our congress ministers in Karnataka helped him to come back without any punishment?? Just go aroung Kodai Lake or Kodaikanal International School U can meet innumerous drug peddlers and can get any stuff. So where is the Law and order in this country?? What is the fuss

wait this things will happen in your so called KOVALAM too. this is everywhere, its universal. I have stayed in Mumbai as well you mean to say all this is not there in Mumbai????? or you dont step out of your house???? every corner you will see a bar and prostitues. Just look out of your window and you can call one at home then you wont have to come to Goa. And surely if people like you dont come to Goa then Goa will be a much more safer place. You people run away from your parents to come and watch the foreigners asses and get drunk and then do something stupid and thats when you'll get beaten and ill treated. Please stay in Mumbai and enjoy the beaches there PLEASE dont come to Goa better for the goans they wont have to deal with people like you. come May December and see the Mumbai trains packed cause all want to rush to Goa cause they cant do this things in Mumbai. And if you think low level foreigners come to Goa then please dont get jealous. Goa caters to the high class as well as middle and low class foreigners. There is a beach for everyone Mumbai has nothing. And what about cops in Mumbai????? havent you seen anough in the movies???? you can even see it with your eyes all this things in Mumbai. So please stop your crap. And after all this if the BRITONS still say that Goa is a place to go who cares about you?

dear seby don't get upset with bitter thruth. Crime is everywhere then why we say this UP is worst. Let us accept the fact that you can visit kovalam and many other destinations with your Parent and kid together bot unfortunately NOT GOA. Yes you can always earn begged dollars from foreigners, thats not the issue.

dear Crazyguy there is not to get upset about. wait for some years to pass by and see what happens to Kovalam. I have been to Kerala and have noticed how they behaved with the girls in the trains. And yes I am happy and proud to be an indian and surely would want ALL of India to be a peaceful and safe place to go with our families. GOA is still safe its never too late.

There is one replacment for goa and kerala its called KONKAN.its neglected due to politicans and mentality of konkan peoples . Right now toursum of konkan is in development stage If everything goes fine konkan will be the replacement for Goa
RE:replacement for goa
by Ravikant Bhat on Mar 14, 2008 01:22 PM
Better not promote Konkan as a replacement to Goa. Recently there was a police raid on a rave party in Sindhudurg. And the expected was found - booze, sex, and drugs! If this is an indicator, then people of Konkan should get ready for worse. It's pristine and virgin beaches should be better left unexplored. Tourism need not be the only economic activity worth exploring in Konkan though industrialisation can also be harmful to its beautiful and fragile ecology. If adequate steps are taken at governmental and local level to keep the local culture strong, then events like those in Goa can be avoided. However the sad story is that when it comes to money, a lot of powerful people get involved and then subsequent decadence becomes difficult to avoid...
I am aware I haven't made any worthwhile constructive suggestions. But I think I have at least pointed out the pitfalls....

RE:RE:replacement for goa

I agree with you whole heartedly. I just want to ask from people of sindhudurg/vengurla/srivardhan/harne/ganpatipule do they want to become like Goa now. Or are they happy the way it is.
I am from Goa originally and I miss the serene, tranquil Goa from my childhood. When I visit Vengurle and other places in Maharashtra, it takes me back to my childhood days.
Development that comes along with tourism is a 2 edged sword.

i dont know why the media is making such a big fuss abt this particular incident.. ive been staying in goa and such thing are happening here on a daily basis.. partly to blame are the tourists.. who roam around topless on the beaches, hang out late nights in barely any clothes, make out with complete strangers they meet in the pubs and the numerous local gigolos.. booze, drugs, sex.. all this is mundane daily life out here.. one irresponsible woman leaves her fifteen year old bombshell on the beach and leaves state.. the girl's bound to do drugs, get laid etc.. maybe she got into bad company and finally landed up dead... unlucky.. sad.. but not shocking and the first incident of its kind..
RE:why the big fuss?
by seby fernandes on Mar 14, 2008 01:22 PM
I totally agree to you. I am not saying what happend to that girl is good and in a way what happened is good as well cause people will be more carefull about what they do especially the foreigners and as far as the drug scene is concerned if not killed will atelast be reduced. at present I am in africa and these things happen here as well. If i roam with lot of gold and show money openly i am inviting trouble. Its better to be safe than sorry. I miss Goa VIVA GOA
RE:why the big fuss?
by nitin on Mar 14, 2008 09:21 PM
They say in Genghis Khan's empire, which was spread from eastern europe to pacific and siberia to edge of india a virgin could ride with lot of gold from one end to other unharmed. May be little exaggeration but what's wrong in dreaming such a state of law and order and see if we can get atleast 1/2 way there.
a top police officer ocne said that given the right backing he could clean goa in 30 days flat. the issue is with locals itself. for the FEAR that once the DRUG cartel is cut off from GOA, then the TOURIST flocking will become ZERO...its that attitude of GOANS (a marked preference to the PHOREN tourist) that has spawned this..what is wanted is a CLEAN UP OPERATION...but for that goans shd ask themselves do we want a CLEAN GOA...
RE:blame the goans!
by seby fernandes on Mar 14, 2008 01:39 PM
who doesnt want a CLEANER BETER place? there is corruption everywhere all parts of the world. I wish it could end right away. but our politicians and our cops are the bigger culprits. and I tell you not everyone comes for drugs. REMOVE the drugs and infact more people will come. Its sad that people think this way

Scarlette's mother has 9 children (now, 8) from 5 different men --- she has come to Goa with her 6th boyfriend and 8 of her children.
RE:blame the goans!
by Haatim on Mar 14, 2008 12:46 PM
sumanta you childrens of mother having 8 or 9 children with different men deserve to be raped and killed by local Goans
The mother who professes to stay put in India till justice is done,about her daughter,a 15? yr old kid,who travelled all the way from her country to India,was not aware what her daughter was doing,where she was going and with whom??!!As a mother of a 17yr.old girl,I find all her emotions are a bit misplaced.She should have envisaged the scenario,of a young girl in a foreign country,unsupervised....and taken precaution.She should have been with her daughter,when she travelled,dosen't help her staying here,after the tragedy,does it.Or was she expecting,only angels live in India?
RE:Scarlett's death in Goa
by Rajesh S on Mar 14, 2008 12:30 PM
I agree that it was gross irresponsible behaviour on the mothers behalf, but what is the bigger issue? The police and the government are trying to cover up a murder just because the drug mafia is involved. Is it right precedent to set for law in this country? The shock and outrage at this behaviour of the police is making even the murder seem small
RE:Scarlett's death in Goa
by Ankash Pravin on Mar 14, 2008 12:32 PM
I agree, The mother is not showing any emotions on the loss of her daughter. Strange, Besides the media has exposed the weakness of our system.
RE:Scarlett's death in Goa
by Nirpinder Singh on Mar 14, 2008 01:20 PM
Actually it is good that she is staying back in India. If she had left the case would not be investigated at all. This is something that affects us all. It could happen with a person of any nationality. We can not fool ourselves by thinking that Indian kids do not take drugs.
Had the same murder taken place in Gujarat,all the so called secular forces,human right commission etc would have made a lot of hue and cry.The honurable prime minister would have also jumped between earth and sky along with Soniaji to dissolve the Gujarat Government.As for as left is concerned,they have to get the instructions from Russia and China and such incidents will not fall in to their ears.They become deaf,blind and dump whenever such incidents take place in their ruling states.

Can U recollect how PM was sleepless when Dr Haneef was arrested in Australia. PM summoned Australian High command to bail him out. On the contrary 4 murders of PHd students in US have not been noticed by Sonia Pm or our secular leaders and BJP is also silent . Had it been A MINORITY , oursECULAR Govt tv channels would have been flashing 'breaking news' thru the day and competing with one another to claim who broke the news first etc... Deve Gowda offered him a position the Ambedkar Medical College making him a National hero as if he had sacrificed fo the nation.. One does not understand the impulsive nature of our media and the Government
RE:Incident in Goa.
by Denver Fernandes on Mar 14, 2008 12:45 PM
I do agree with Mr. Ganpat Rai, my friend. And as far as Mr Rangarajan is concerned, seems like a communist remark by himself. Congress is march better then BJP, as they atleast bother about about ,minorities. And not the BJP Agenda of Hindustatva, what should the minorities do, and who do you think the Prime Minister is, does he got no work for so small issues. If so is the thing then whatabout the nuns raped in North India during the BJP tenure, what about the Australian Missionaries Burnt alive in their jeep in Orrisa, during BJP rule? So Mr. Rangarajan, simply dont assume things. Get to reality before commenting.
RE:RE:Incident in Goa.
by All Right on Mar 14, 2008 02:10 PM
Devender. That's where you are missing the point. You are right, PM has more pressing issues. The point Rangarajan is making - IF this happened in Gujarat, THEN the PM would have jumped in. And then even you would have forgotten that the PM has other important things to do, coz you already believe Congress is better than BJP (for good reasons of your own). As for nuns incident in North India during BJP tenure, well, it's Congress tenure this time around. So get to reality before commenting.
The Goa state government cannot absolve itself of its share of responsibility in the death of British tourist Scarlette. It is a well known fact that the beaches of Goa are the hub of international drug mafia. Drug trafficking involving foreign tourists has been going on there with the full knowledge and support of the state police and local politicians. All cops are on the payroll of the drug peddlers. If U visit Goa U can get it on any of the luxury yachts and will wonder what the law makers/protectors are doing ? The Ministry of Tourism in collaboration with the Home Ministry and the state governments have to devise methods by which the tourists are protected
