Dear Tony,
My heartiest congratulations to you on being elected our President for the GOA NSW for a second time and I hope that you will never be taken over by anyone else. You do know that I am your staunchest and strongest supporter and you will always have my assistance in this regard. We both share the same passion i.e. our birthright, our culture, our family values and all that is GOA.
You have worked so hard to put Goa on the map not only in Sydney and throughout Australia but also throughout the world. With all the research you do for us, endless hours of correspondence and sharing of ideas and thoughts is what has made us such a popular community in this country. Please feel free to call on my support at any time because I am just as passionate and would love to see us grow.
Good luck to you Tony and to your Committee and I am confident that with your guidance and sympathetic approach the GOA will flourish from strength to strength.
Best wishes to you and the family.
