Hi.........I hope this
will make us understand why bribery is part of our
culture !!!!!!!
Analysis on corruption in India does not address its
cultural aspect. We see nothing peculiar about
corruption in India (except that it is everywhere).
We see many corrupt individuals in a system unable
to correct itself. Our media reports corruption
episodically. One independent incident of greed
follows another.

for "AD LIMINA APOSTOLORUM"
Sent by Antonio Mascarenhas
"AD
LIMINA APOSTOLORUM" is the technical term for the
visit every Bishop has to pay to the Holy Father,the
Pope,successor of St.Peter.This visit is also called
the QUINQUENNIAL VISIT,because it is supposed to be
held every 5 years. But somehow that never
happens,because the Popes never seem to get enough
time !! For example,this year we were called after 8
years.Our previous one was also held after 8
years.It was to be held in 2000,but the Pope(JOHN
PAUL II ) was too busy with the GREAT JUBILEE
programmes.So, we had been called in 2003.And now
once again we came after 8 years.
