Historic Portuguese mansion an oasis of calm in colourful India

[@janicedcunha9092]

Congrats to this family for preserving rich heritage which no money can buy. The generosity of this family has to be admired for permitting tourists to view goan and Portuguese culture. Bravo!!!!!

[@JerinGeorge]

As an Indian. I've always admired the Portugese culture...

[@Alfablue227]

Such stupidity on above comments!! Respect others!!! . Thank you for admiring my culture. Our actions of the past were wrong, but no different from other powers. I hope Goans win this fight to preserve your beautiful, different Portuguese culture. Remember, that is what makes you unique. Much love from Portugal 🇵🇹

[@cg8397]

@@Alfablue227 I don't know about the rest of the Empire, but the Portuguese treated the Goans well when compared to Goa's previous rulers. You can read about it here: www.bertrand.pt/livro/conquistadores-roger-crowley/17436482 Again, Portuguese people have no reason to be ashamed.

[@musicmania1959]

This is an example of the rulers and Elite Goan collaborators living on the fat of the land while the poor had to struggle living in huts without education or jobs or future. One wise thing the Portugese did was to give Bombay to the British . The latter provided jobs and prosperity to goans not only in Bombay but in East Africa and other colonies.

[@cg8397]

@@musicmania1959 There was nothing to stop those overseas Goans from moving back to Goa with their acquired riches and starting their own companies and institutions. That they didn't says more about them than the local government and bhatkars.

[@musicmania1959]

@@cg8397 you say return ,but to what? A depressed economy , where's the business-- selling fish to the bhatkars and drunken Portugese.

[@cg8397]

@@musicmania1959 Tristão Bragança Cunha was a graduate of electrical engineering from a top engineering school in Paris, but he never bothered to implement his knowledge and electrify Goa. He just shrieked about politics instead. It's got nothing to do with social position, but mindset. Diaspora Goans kept the same mentality they had even after 1961, choosing to go to the UK instead of returning to Goa when the British colonies in Africa became independent .

The splendour with which the Portuguese lived in Goa! Spare a thought for the rank and file Goan . How did they live? Living on the fat of the land comes to mind for the Portuguese and the wretched for the rest. What a shame!

[@cg8397]

This video doesn't tell everything. The house was originally built by a Goan convert to Christianity, when the male line died out the house was inherited by a daughter married to a Portuguese man.

[@leeoconnor123]

so, nice, i have never been to goa, some of my family go back, my uncle has friends and extended family there. my grandparents moved to kenya so long ago and i don't have a personal connection to the place as my childhood visits were to kenya and my grandparents and back home to the uk. i have been to portugal though! it's very nice to see this level of history. i'd love to have known more about this family and their home/family tree even. it's impossible for me to make a family tree, so i have to look at other people's. my grandfather had a house in goa but gave it up to the people who ended up living in it illegally, as we all had homes to live in other countries. i do wonder what he left behind though, all those family photo's, as migrants moving around a lot, we seemed to have lost so many family heirlooms, but what we do have is a solid gold rosary in the family, mainly jewellery gifts handed down at weddings etc..

Why should they? This family wasn't involved. The Inquisition targeted only false converts to Christianity.

[@cg8397]

@@meme-lh8ls Don't believe the fake history book written by pro-merger 'Marathi manoos' Priolkar (or the resulting fake history video the Parrikar govt created to show in schools). The Portuguese made sure that no Goans were killed in the 1510 conquest, they teamed up with the local Hindus and killed only the Bijapur Muslims. Read the English translation of Afonso de Albuquerque's letters online. Also, less than 60 persons in total were actually executed by the Goa Inquisition. Again, this is from their own records.

Salazar was right. Vassalo e Silva was wrong.

[@cg8397]

No, Salazar also made several mistakes. A lot of illegal immigrants had entered Goa from British India as cheap labour (mostly Marathis) and Partition 'refugees'. They and their families formed a fifth column inside Goa (e.g. Bandodkar, Khalap, Zantye, Melwani, etc.). Salazar's government never bothered to expel these illegals and keep the borders secure. He also never bothered to hold a plebiscite for native Goans to choose between merger with independent India and staying with Portugal (most Goans had observed the inferior living standards in rural British India, he'd have won).
