    Strange things always happen .Here is one of them .Golf played by only by a hand full of people yet so much money is been spent. Mangalore had once upon a time a Hockey ground which now is our city service bus stand one cricket ground which even till date does not have proper pavilion, or gallery to watch. Yet we want to  show off with golf - a  rich man's game.....sponsors please think, threre are a  lot  more important things than Golf..

    First of all we Indians must be aware that if 1% of the population want to build some complex however extravagant it might be then it will go on as 1% of these persons have 70% of the wealth. The politicians belong to the 1% folks. This we have to thank the 99% follks. So the 99% folks do not have anything to complain. We tolerate this and also expect this.  It is however sickining to hear from Walter Sandenas statement that this very Minister has not fulfilled his promise in building toilets in his primary school. This would cost him not even his 1 days earnigs. What a shame. But this is India. We were too long under the British rule. Things would have looked defferently otherwise.

    Mr Vijaya Raj, Jeevandas is commenting on the current situation that Mangalore has been rendered to and one of this being insecurity felt by the Women. However I am glad the same women came out in large numbers to decide the fate of this insecurity that has been created. Pls Put your Mind into gear before you put your tongue into motion..

    Mr. Jeevandas Your idea for introducing sports like Korida katta, Goli, Kutti Donne, Lagori, Tonka, Bandi, and Kannu Muchhale is a very good. But who is going to play these games ? Are you ready to play ? Of course not for the sake of photography. but regularly. The idea behind golf course and other high society games is to collect tax from rich people. Because middle class and low class people cannot afford these games.

    Mr.Jeevandas I totally agree with you. These politicians change colours every other minute. There was such a big hue and cry for Charlie Chaplin statue because he was westerner. No we see our dear minister endorsing the so called western sport. Also adding to Mr.Walters point we dont see our ministers laying foundation stones for toilets or water tanks in Schools, under developed layouts but we see them doing these kind of things very often.

    My gratitude to Dr. Hegde and his family for taking the initiative to get the PGC up to speed. Having a "real" golf course in Mangalore will make living even more attractive in this wonderful city. A big thank you...sir.

    Well honarable MR. PALEMER MLA in front of public appearence while you laying the foundation stone for the Pilikula Golf Guest House better you first lay the foundation stone for the promise you had made to build a TOILET to a SCHOOL where you had your Primary school education which school had honoured you for your success to be a Minister of Karnataka.

    As you are a old student of St. John''s Higher Primary Boys School Cascia located in the heart of the city where you received a honour in that SCHOOL in front of the gerneral public also in front of your Ex-teachers (2 Lady teachers and one Male teacher) and that day you had offered your honour to your Exmale teacher saying the dialogue SISHANA SANMANA GURUGALEEGE!!!! and at that time you had promised the school management for building a toilet but upto now that your promise remain like the say "NEERINA MALEH ITTA HOMA DA HAGE"!!!!

    Mr. Palemar if you forgot that promise I will remind you to recall back your memory wake up and full fill your promise and contribute generously and build a SHAUCHALAYA to your Exschool that time your SISHANA SANMANA GURUGALEEGE will have the meaning and that time the school management and general public will respect to your dignity and to your personality and to your MINISTERSHIP.

How come golf is in your mind please introduce sports like Korida katta, Goli, Kutti Donne, Lagori, Tonka, Bandi, and of course Kannu Muchhale (hide and seek the inocent people of ram sene who dragged those women from restaurants and beaten on a broad day light). In Mangalore local women are afraid to go out on streets than who will play golf?
