    Mahalo for all your kind words Miliaulani, this was a difficult interview.  Since May 10th this was the first time Kaimana cried and was able to share his feelings and observation.

    How can kanaka do this to kanaka?  How callous and uncaring.  I understand you are doing your job, orders being given to you by higher-ups but you can at least treat these people with dignity and care. Property/home may belong to DHHL but personal belongings belong to the family.  They are limited to 15 minutes to collect their belongings and now in order to retrieve the rest of their things they must pay $2800 to get them out of storage? Unbelieveable! Why was the family not given advance notice?  Isn't that proper protocol? Aren't the thugs (sheriffs) suppose to identify themselves, carry their badges, hand over proper paperwork?  These tactics are unacceptable!!!! Our own people have turned against each other.  It makes me ill.  How can you stand there in utter disrespect for the kupunakane who wears depends and can't walk or fend for himself? This story is utterly despicable and shameful for those who treaded on the dignity of the Kaihana 'ohana. Their struggle will endure long after you have moved on to the next family to evict.  Auwe!

    aloha... my mo'opuna goes to Anuenue.. kula starts next week... its always sad to hear the word eviction followed by words Hawaiian Homestead... been watching this program on Olelo its called Kanaka Express.. they specialize in helping people with foreclosures...few months ago they had a couple women from Nanakuli Homestead that were having the same problems...  so they ended going through their program... they seem to be happy with the out come... i tell all my friends and family who are going through this to check it out... perhaps this can help you too... Google or go to Olelo... Kanaka Express or Kale Gumapak... Kaimana my hope and prayers go out to you and your Ohana for a quit solution... like the girl with the red shoes said... theirs no place like Home... mahalo kaohi... mahalo pono... another great video..aloha
