Bonjour, ici la France à Goa
Pedro Mascarenhas
Since 2007, Alliance Française, Panaji (AFP), in Altinho, next to Menezes Polyclinic, has been fostering intercultural dialogue and amicable relations between France and Goa.
Thierry Mathou, the Ambassador of France in India recently paid a visit to the Alliance Française Panaji. It was his first official visit to Goa.
French President Emmanuel Macron will visit India's capital New Delhi on January 26 for India's Republic Day, and would be welcomed as "chief guest".
AFP organize the Ciné-Night (movie nights) for cinephiles, the Fête de la Musique (musical evening), the Fête Nationale (French National Day) and many more cultural events.
Une amitié très forte, n'est-ce pas ?

While both Portugal and India describe their ties as excellent, what are the new frontiers you’d like to explore to strengthen the relations and boost trade? What new areas would you like to tap?
In fact, in spite of very good political relationship the economic relations between the two countries are almost incipient. It is this that we intend to change, starting with this visit as there are many mutually beneficial opportunities to explore.
India may take advantage of the Portuguese experience in areas in which Portugal has made big investments in the recent past such as renewable energies, infrastructures, and environmental industries related to water, sewage and garbage collection, areas that can be very relevant for India.
There are sectors in which both countries have developed know how and in which closer cooperation can be mutually beneficial, such as ICT, pharmaceuticals or medical research, aerospace or mobility. We can also explore closer ties in startups.
For India it may be interesting to consider Portugal as a platform to address markets in Europe, Latin America or in Africa.
This are examples of possible things to do, but what is really important is to strengthen the ties between our business communities and certainly opportunities will appear.

It is interesting to note that Poducherry is 4km away from Arikamedu, where there are traces of the Romans. Finds of new variety of Roman Amphorae ware also facilitated revision of the dates of occupancy. They have also inferred that the site has been in continuous occupation since at least 2nd or 3rd century BCE to much more recent times.
The Romans were referred as Romakas in India while the Romans referred Indians as Indos.
We can imagine ships passing along the Konkan coast (Gopakapattana ?) . Indo-Roman relations were built on trade. Roman trade in India began with overland caravans and later by direct maritime trade following the conquest of Egypt by Augustus in 30 BCE .
--While in Goa, dictatorship and colonialism, simultaneously, were in force, in Puducherry (Pondicherry) despite the colonial policy, Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité were practiced, thus since 1954, the government of India had made it clear that the cultural and other rights of the people would be fully respected.Then, France jumped from Puducherry to Goa.Since 2007, Alliance Française, Panaji (AFP), in Altinho, next to Menezes Polyclinic, has been fostering intercultural dialogue and amicable relations between France and Goa.
