Kashe asa? I was reading about Italy's schemes to bring people back to the villages, and I thought of my own Goa. Here, the old fishing families sell their ancestral homes to hotels, and the young ones move to Panjim or Dubai. Everyone waits for a government committee to fix the zoning, but the market already decided: a beach shack makes more money than a cashew orchard. My own balcony faces the sea, but the breeze smells of diesel from the tourist boats now. If we want progress, we cannot delay the small steps—register a title, start a co-op, plant a tree today—because waiting has victims too, and they are the ones who cannot afford to wait.
