IT'S SUPERFERRY SINK OR SWIM TIME ON VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I'S FUTURE
It was very rough sailing for the Superferry this last week.
Yesterday FreeHawaii.Info revealed Superferry attorneys declared an “emergency situation” in a letter to the Public and Utilities Commission.
They readily conceded the Superferrys ability to continue running is in serious doubt with so few passengers.
Last Monday FreeHawaii.Info addressed the fact the US military plans to use the ship to transport heavy military equipment to the neighbor islands, including Stryker vehicles confirming what many knew all along - the Superferry is a US military transport system as much as anything else.
All this while keeping Maui Mayor Charmaine Tavares in the dark.
And on Friday we told you large winter swells have once again not only shut the Superferry down completely at least through tomorrow, but seriously damaged the docking barge in Kahului harbor.
Two things are quickly becoming apparent – the extent to which Hawai`i residents are boycotting the ship and the fact that John Garibaldi will soon be going to Linda Lingle seeking a financial bailout to keep the Superferry afloat.
This last Wednesday on Free Hawai`i TV we predicted the Superferrys need of a cash infusion of millions soon from the Lingle administration and what you can do right now to help prevent that.
The Superferry has been both a public relations and financial disaster – a big mahalo to all who continue to boycott the ship.
Our Voices Of Truth Superferry shows continue to be two of our most popular.
Stay tuned to the Free Hawai`i Broadcasting Network for Superferry breaking news and what you can do to help stop a Superferry super bailout that is sure to come.

“Fish Out Of Water – A Visit With Andre Perez”
Very few of us will ever find ourselves entering prison – especially if we’ve committed no crime.
Yet that’s exactly what Andre Perez did upon discovering the state of Hawai`i was shipping significant numbers of native Hawaiian inmates out of Hawai`i to prisons on the US continent in remote places like Arizona and Mississippi.
Andre correctly surmised they were not only longing to be back home, but connected to their culture – some for the first time.
What to do? Hop on a plane and bring their culture to them, starting with observing the Makahiki.
So there they ended up, standing in a prison yard outside in twenty degrees weather, dressed only in malo and kikepa greeting the sun as it rose in the early morning sky to herald the beginning of Makahiki.
You’ll be as riveted as us as Andre describes his experiences inside prison, and what it was like working with the inmates, including a surprise he could have never imagined – coming face to face with a convict who committed a crime against his own family – and who turned out to be his cousin.
Voices Of Truth interviews those creating a better future for Hawai`i to discover what made them go from armchair observers to active participants in the hopes of inspiring viewers to do the same.
