Mangalorean.com team members Joseph Pereira, Michael Rodrigues (Udupi) and Alfie D’Souza were present during the press meet.

 
Mangalorean.com has without doubt achieved what it initially aimed to do. It has not only brought Mangaloreans closer to each other, but has also made a sincere effort to preserve Mangalorean ethos, culture, language and tradition. We feel that, even though the journey so far has not been easy, it has been entirely worthwhile, bringing with it a complete sense of satisfaction and pride. What has been appreciated by our readers far and wide is that the portal has not shown any leanings towards any faith or community in particular nor any preference to or bias against any political ideology. It has desisted from becoming a mouthpiece for anyone but is only trying to be a voice for those who need to be heard.
