Oh btw, since you did mention the belief system, how do you explain the belief system of DHHL ? WHO STATED TO ME they didn't have any records of me in 1987 or 89 ? And they hadn't lost any records during that time....really ? OK THEN explain how I GOT THE RECORDS OF 1989 BY THE STATE AUDITOR WHO JUST SO HAPPENED TO MENTION HOW SHODDY THEIR ENTIRE DEPT WAS IN RECORD KEEPING ? NOW tell me about the belief SYSTEM...is it state , city , Or a politician using you as a mediator because your Hawaiian and getting some kickbacks or credit for instilling mistrust issues of deceit turning it around by those same people - Bishop / Homestead ,and Akaka to sound like they are sympathetic and so caring while LAUGHING in the background at us ! Did you ever see the video of Abrecrombie and Charles Toguchi in Washington DC TELLING THEM how they stole the lands in Hawaii while Charles the STATE DOE Superintendent sat there laughing at that He's the same person who is a shareholder of AES who now has windfarms on Kahuku land...and the state didn't even blink and eye at the fact he used STATE FUNDS TO GO TO WASHINGTON WITH ABRECROMBIE when he was in Senate !
