Bring back ex-Margao SDMNoel Pinto, Dubai-UAEIt is disgusting to note the treatment given to former SDM of Margao, Mr. Suresh Pilarnekar. The situation in which he is in today is the result of his good work towards the society. How on earth he is deserved such an awful treatment from the government after keeping on check several gambling activities by himself? In fact, he should have been awarded with medal or at least his work should have been appreciated. If he had to cooperate with the gamblers, police and politicians, would he be happy? Definitely yes, he would be happy but not get the satisfaction. He would have made lots of money for himself, but he chose not to do it as he is a man of honour, believe in honesty and the good work for the society. Well, rather than punishing those who are guilty in his attempt to curb the menace of gambling, he paid the price in the form of a transfer to Sanguem as a Forest Settlement Officer. If such things continue, it means government is encouraging the gambling activities, corruption and anti-social elements in our society. Without the intervention of Chief Minister – Mr. read more. Going green: Zero emission across different industriesConcern for environmental damage caused by industries' pollution has reached fever pitch globally. Proactive waste management systems practiced today are still in the "end-of-the-pipe" phase. They need to move beyond recycling to work at minimizing waste generation. This can be done by revisiting the entire production processes of different industries.

As a new paradigm, zero waste has to be embraced with a near religious zeal that goes beyond recycling waste. At the basic level, it would mean that the manufacturer takes back some part of the product for reuse. The significant barriers to zero-waste drive are evident. If there was resistance to setting up effluent treatment plants in the early 1990s, radical shifts in today's production process are bound to face stronger resistance. read more. South Africa: Bags Full of Possibilities for Job CreationJOB creation is often seen as requiring big projects, massive capital outlay or state intervention. Business and government overlook opportunities in the so-called second economy. Instead of pouring money into job creation, why not support and expand existing markets created by the entrepreneurial instincts of poor people? An excellent example of this is the Johannesburg cross-border retail trade sector, where more than half a million people are coming into the city each year to shop, bringing in between R15bn and R20bn a year. Figures from South African Tourism indicate that one third, or R15,7bn, of the total spend by domestic and international tourists in SA in 2004 was in Johannesburg. Of this, R5,7bn, or more than one-third, was from regional shoppers travelling overland to SA. read more.
