It is ongoing right now. You can expect news anytime before mid December. Keep us posted so we know.

Such an important message and thank you for reiterating Jack’s views.

It all starts in Goa. We don’t like so called outsiders. We don’t allow or accept non Goans to integrate into our communities and likewise don’t integrate into others.

As a frequent flyer to Heathrow, I come across many Goan youth in the Etihad lounge. Many educated some not. I ask why they don’t seek other careers, the answer I always got is we love to be around Goenkars, we feel at home, we can speak Konkani, my boss is Goan etc

Whenever a Goan has integrated into communities we have seen them change the world. Tony Fernandes of Air Asia, Ivan Menezes of Diageo, Manuel Ferns of (confidential) Manufacturing FZ Kizad etc

Jack, Manuel, Everyone
All the redundant posts here caused me to miss Jack's good message concerning the status of Goans in the UK. I thought I'd add my two cents to the conversation.

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Jack. This is not just in the UK mind you. I have a friend in Canada (he's a Canadian not Goan), he told me that the Indians are also amongst those who chose to not assimilate and integrate with the natural Canadian folk. He mentioned about killings occurring amongst the Indian Sikhs, but that's immaterial. The point is that it's true, I reckon that most Indians prefer to not integrate. It is true that there are Goans who don't have good education backgrounds who move to the UK. One of my neighbour's who migrated to the UK couldn't even speak good English with me.

But I have to add that, I have relatives in England who migrated in the nineties or before, and are now British citizens. They have two children. They are all doing well. I have relatives (five of them) living in Scotland right now, it was a whole family. The father works for the NHS, he's an Indian citizen who's living as a dependent on his wife, who's a Portuguese citizen (also from Goa). The wife is doing her master's degree there, and the children are little. They migrated originally to Southampton England in twenty sixteen. Yes they do struggle I'll admit it, but they integrate with the Scottish.

I have distant relatives living in Portugal right now, and when they came down to Goa years ago (before I even knew that I could become Portuguese) for a short while, very easily demonstrated their Portuguese culture to us, which indicated that they assimilated with the Portuguese folk for years on in.

Indeed these isolated communities need to be disbanded. I also agree that it is due to a lack of essential skills that Goans can suffer, not just in the UK, but also in Europe or any first world country. It certainly is my intention to integrate with the Irish once I move to Ireland, without any question. I'd also encourage all my fellow Goans who are endeavouring to move to Europe to ensure that you (or your relative or on whom you are going to be dependent on), are well qualified and ready to integrate with the white community. Just because they are of a different skin colour or culture doesn't mean they are to be treated as outcasts.

I'll just repost Jack's message so as to bring it back to the front, "Manuel - While it’s true that many Goans are living a bad life over here that’s not the case with everyone. My uncle, who came here in the nineties and my cousins, are all doing quite well for themselves. He did not come here on a Portuguese passport though. The issue with many Goans not having a good life is largely down to a lack of education and other skills. If you’re unskilled, then you’re likely to struggle in any European country.

It’s also down to the formation of immigrant dominated communities, such as those in Swindon, Hounslow, Leicester and Birmingham. These communities need to be disbanded. It hinders people from interacting with the White English at large and keeps them down.

White American, Australian or German immigrants to the UK don’t form separate communities but integrate with the English. The formation of immigrant communities further hinders the integration with the natives to a point where many immigrants have no real idea how the UK works."

Com os melhores cumprimentas,
Ezekiel

GUYS - THIS GOES TO ALL GOANS, UK, EUROPE,GULF, AFRICA
Guy's please be united, show some respect to one and other, keep the differences and ego to your ownself, keep all your frustrations to your ownself rather than taking on others - especially on Manuel, he is straight forward very helpful guy and most people on earth dont like anyone someone being straight forward. Only cowards try to cut down straight talkers,be humble and ask your necessary questions about your Portuguese passport process here, don't make this forum a garbage bin, by using valgar words because only geniune people seeking for real advice on this forum suffer.
our real old goans were very polite and helpful, modern generation who's parents didnt give good values to their children behave frustrated. Sad ......

Martha
Respect!
