Honolulu Civil Beat - March 21, 2013 - By Chad Blair

Internal squabbling is nothing new at the Office of Hawaiian Affairs. But now one trustee has filed a formal ethics complaint against a fellow trustee over what she says are shady dealings in a $21 million property purchase.

The complaint by Rowena Akana against Haunani Apoliona is pending before the Hawaii State Ethics Commission.

Akana alleges that Apoliona should not have voted last year to approve purchase of the Gentry Pacific Design Center because she sits on the board of directors for Bank of Hawaii, OHA's financer of the purchase.

In her July 17 letter to the Ethics Commission, Akana argues that Apoliona's vote is "a clear violation" of the state's Ethics Code known as Chapter 84....

Read The Entire Investigation Here

Over 96% of Hawaiian Citizens rejected the US attempted annexation back in 1897.

They never wanted to become part of the US. Rather, they wanted their monarch reinstated and their country back.

As for the fake state, it's null and void even according to the laws of the US constitution.

To this day statehood and the illegal US occupation is repugnant to Hawaiian Kingdom laws and treaties.

Only US citizens were allowed to vote for statehood or those declared by the US to be citizens, along with the US military.

The US went through the motions of legitimizing what could not be lawful or legal.

Today, with Kana`iolowalu, the phony Native Hawaiian Roll, the Office Of Hawaiian Affairs  and fake state are trying to fool everyone into thinking a Hawaiian nation will be created, when in fact no nation will be established at all but simply a US Indian tribal governing entity.

They are trying to fool Hawaiians into negotiating away forever the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Fulfill and enforce the laws !!
".....we were demanding D.H.H.L. to give the Hawaiians these lands......"
Is it too much to ask in humility that the present laws already on the books be followed ??
Determination to break the laws !!
Excuses. Excuses. Excuses.
Instead,  we see a dogged determination to violate the laws at all costs.  ALL of the authorities are unified in defying the laws.
"....it's to NOT put beneficiaries on the land period....."
One Hawaiian to say it looks fair and square to him !!

Permanent Loss Of Hawaiian Homelands & Danners Involved

The Garden Island - March 11, 2013

ANAHOLA — If local residents have their way, the Anahola Renewable Energy Project will be stopped dead in its tracks. Project supporters, however, are saying much of the opposition is being fueled by misinformation and rumors.

The Department of Hawaiian Home Lands is proposing to lease more than 2,000 acres of Anahola lands to Green Energy Team, LLC of Kaua`i for the purpose of clearing existing albizia trees for its planned biomass-to-energy facility near Koloa.

More than 200 residents, mostly from Anahola, showed strong opposition to the project — concerned that the lease would privatize Hawaiian homestead lands — at a Beneficiary Consultation meeting held Friday evening at Anahola Clubhouse.

“With this lease, even a blind man can see, we’ll never get our lands back,” Joe Borden, the newly-elected president of the Anahola Farmers and Ranchers group, said prior to Friday’s gathering.

Tempers flared during the event — which lacked any sort of control by the meeting’s organizer, DHHL — with people screaming over one another from start to finish.

“Somebody along the way recommended this as a good deal for Hawaiians,” Anahola resident Shane Cobb-Adams said. “And I want to know who they are … It’s a bad idea.”

The 30-year proposed lease is for 2,143 acres of land belonging to native Hawaiians under the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act of 1920. If approved, the land would be used for clearing trees and replanting and harvesting biomass feedstock, which would be delivered to Green Energy’s state-of-the-art, $90 million facility....

...“How much more land are you going to take?” a man repeated more than a dozen times.

“How come you feel like you got to help us so bad?” another man screamed from the audience. “Why Anahola?”

Economy Driving Away Hawaiians & Their Aloha

Greed, selfishness and simply using these islands to allow foreigners to make millions of dollars off our people are western concepts and have no place in Hawai`i.
 

Unless we immediately find a way to preserve and help Hawaiians, the tourism industry will soon find aloha even harder to sell.

With the cost of living and thousands of Hawaiian families still being forced to move to foreign countries like the US every year, we are depleting our greatest natural resource for aloha.

Even worse, as Hawaiian families lose their young to hopelessness and despair and moving away, aloha is in trouble.

A Native Hawaiian Roll is yesterday's solution.

 
It's whole purpose is to again go hat in hand to the US federal government for help and turning Hawaiians inward and against each other in their own land.
 

For more than 100 years, this has not worked.
 

Instead, we can seize the opportunity to create a dynamic new nation through which we can maintain our culture and values, have more control over our future and be a leader among the Pacific nations.

Let This Be Our Legacy To Future Generations.

Here's What The History Books Won't Tell You -

Western diseases, to which Hawaiians had no immunity, decimated their numbers. At the time of western contact, well over 500,000 people inhabited the Hawaiian Islands.

By 1805 that number had been more than halved.

By 1853 there were only 71,000 Hawaiian or part-Hawaiian people in the islands.

Within 100 years of western contact, the Hawaiian population had been reduced by nearly 90 percent.

According to the 2000 census, the numbers of people who claim some native Hawaiian ancestry have increased to over 400,000. But only 239,000 live in Hawai`i and they are the poorest, most locked-up population in the state.

Although they only make up about 20 percent of the state's population, in June 2001 they made up 39 percent of the state's prison population, according to the state Department of Public Safety.

Sadly, today they make up 37 percent of the state's homeless population.

Nobel Prize for Reinstatement

The Garden Island recently revealed that Kekane had been awarded The Nobel Prize !!  "The Nobel Committee has informed me that the Prize for Reinstatement is NOT a shared award.  I  will be receiving ALL of the prize money in a one lump sum",  Pa said in a recent interview.
