CAN YOU HELP?

 

SOME of you may know that it has been my dream to produce a book celebrating current Goan achievers around the world. So far, I have failed miserably ... this is my last chance for my last book.


If you anyone who deserves recognition, please send me their names and contact details. There are lots and lots of Goans doing wonderful things in all aspects of life around the world. For history's sake let us celebrate them in a little book.

Help me, please.


Share this with anyone!

At the age of four, he moved to Nairobi where he attended St.Teresa’s Primary School. Six years later he moved to England. Dr Fernandes, Medical Director of NHS Direct South London and GP at Parchmore Medical Centre, Thornton Heath, Croydon, Surrey has been honoured with an MBE (January 2004) in the Queen's New Year Honours list for “Services to Healthcare”. Dr Agnelo Fernandes said: “I am absolutely delighted and thrilled. Such an honour is really a tribute to all NHS staff who are working to modernise the health service.”
