Greetings and a warm welcome to our second issue of Amcho Ekvott to commemorate World Goa Day 2015.
Editors Note
Amcho Ekvott team brings to you yet another issue of our novel online publication. It is an ever changing time where people talk about the demise of print, the rise of smart phones and tablets and the growth of news through web and social media. Our Team pledges to bring you informative and thought provoking content in each of our issues. As you work your way through this our second issue of Amcho Ekvott, you can look at one category at a time, or just peruse the articles on our home page as to which ones to read first. Just as with a paper magazine, you may want to sit and read the whole thing at once, or come back to this issue several times to digest the articles more slowly. Variety is a catchphrase, and we intend to explore by featuring people from different walks of life be it the field of writers, editors, journalists, religious scholars, artists, professors and educationalists, musicians , chefs or social workers. We would like to thank all those who have actively contributed their recipes for our initiatives ‘The Goan Food’ & ‘Traditional Goan Sweets’ recipe e-book Look out for your free copy. We, therefore encourage our members to actively participate by sending in their contribution be in the form of an article, poem, or pictorials Viva Goa Debbie Santamaria WGD General Secretary
