As said earlier the Beautiful Singapore finally tracked the Gotheborg!
Gotheborg the Swedish ship of 18th Century remake arrived at Chennai on Tuesday 30th January 2007!
Unlike the proximity at which the ship could be viewed from the Harbour Front in Singapore, currently Gotheborg is anchored some 1/2 km from the beach of Chennai.
The Swedish ship Gotheborg was welcomed by Swedish Embassy with lighting of crackers at the Marina to the amusement of the Beach goers who were taken by surprise when the ship was seen at Bay of Bengal!
It was a delight of course see such a massive old fashioned ship in the current era!
However as observed neither the media nor the business community of Madras utilized the opportunity to enhance their business opportunities in comparison to the way the event was highlighted in Singapore media and business circles and the innovative inspiration in which vivo city or Harbour Front promoted the event attracting great gathering thereby increasing their great business as well.
Its expected to be there at Chennai for about 10 days. Surprisingly there was no news of Cine Actress Revathi abode the ship news appearing in the India Media diaspora !
The tamil paper of Singapore Thamiz Murasu has come out with an article from Revathi last week here in Singapore - Experience abode Gotheborg!
You may read further in The Hindu for more on Gotheborg from Chennai
