The World Goa Day celebrations at Abu Dhabi’s Hilton Hotel, on Friday, August 21, were a colourful affair
More than 600 members of Abu Dhabi’s Goan community packed a hotel ballroom yesterday to mark World Goa Day in a first for the capital.
“Where have you been and why is this the first event in Abu Dhabi?,” said Indian ambassador T P Seetharam, the event’s guest of honour, while addressing the crowd.
Mr Seetharam was happy to attend, he said, because he knew Goans were India’s most fun-loving people.
“You should be doing this more often so you can bring more energy to our life in Abu Dhabi,” he said. Details
