Youth Day (WYD) is the largest youth event in the
world and will be held in Sydney from Tuesday 15 to
Sunday 20 July 2008. Organised by the Catholic Church,
WYD brings together young people from around the globe
to celebrate and learn about their faith on a more
regular basis. WYD08 will be the largest event
Australia has ever hosted. It will attract over
125,000 international visitors - more than the 2000
Olympics.
WYD08 will mark the first visit of His Holiness Pope
Benedict XVI to Australia.
Through the WYD08 experience, young people from
throughout the world will make a pilgrimage in faith,
meet, and experience the love of God.
World Youth Day is an invitation from the Pope to the
youth of the world to celebrate their faith around a
particular theme. Everyone is welcome to attend. Many
of the Goan youth of Australia and particularly those
in Sydney are involved in some way or the other with
world Youth Day. The Goan Overseas Association - New

News Release For Meeting
A WARNING CALL TO THOSE WHO HAVE PROPERTY IN GOA OR
CONSIDERING INVESTING IN THE MOTHERLAND……….
……..EVEN AS YOU READ THIS YOUR INHERITANCE COULD BE IN
JEOPARDY……..
……..GREED AND CORRUPTION IS RAMPANT IN THE
MOTHERLAND…..
……..SADLY, NRI’s AND NRG’s HAVE BEEN TARGETTED…….
……..HEED THE ALARM CALLS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.
No……..this is not sensationalism but the cold
unvarnished truth of the sad goings on in our
motherland.
Members of the IGO have just returned from Goa and
have witnessed first hand the appalling experience of
one family member cheating another; neighbour turning
upon neighbour; and the like. They have been privy to
the tangled web of bureaucracy, hassle and frustration
that is now an integral part of the property
administration process. Sad, but true. And now they
want to help you in ways that can make a difference.
Attend the IGO meeting at the Eatonville Library, 430
Burnhamthorpe Road, Etobicoke, Sunday, July 6, 2008,
from 2.30pm to 4.15pm , and get better informed about
this sorry situation.

Property values in Goa are escalating on a daily basis
to unprecedented and unimagined heights and this, in
turn, has fuelled a spiral of greed that now threatens
the relationships between neighbours, friends and
family.
Your first step is to get abreast of the cold, hard
facts.
