DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS ON DECK NOT IN CHECK ON VOICES OF TRUTH – ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I’S FUTURE

If you think a bad economy would slow development in Hawai`i, you’d be very wrong.

An unbelievable 15,941 residential units are currently under construction on Maui alone with even more planned.

Of course practically all of these are being built by foreign developers, which means profits from these projects will not stay in Hawai`i to benefit its people.

If you’re wondering, “Is anybody doing anything to stop this?” you’re not alone. Watch our report on Free Hawai`i TV this coming Wednesday for details and how you can help.

Love for our `aina or land rather than money is a completely different set of cultural values no one lives better than Meleanna Aluli Meyer.

An artist, filmmaker and writer extraordinaire, Meleanna exudes both talent and a vision sure to inspire. See for yourself all this week on Hawai`i’s award winning Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.

HAWAIIAN STATE OF MIND DEFINED ON VOICES OF TRUTH – ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I’S FUTURE

Ke`eaumoku Kapu walked in one day many years ago, told his boss he was quitting and never looked back.

What caused him to take such drastic action?

He had taken notice of what was happening to the people and land on Maui, and what he saw, he didn’t like. From that day forward, Ke`eaumoku became a warrior for Maui and for his country – the Hawaiian Kingdom.

If you’re thinking, “well good for him, but I could never do that,” you might want to think twice.

All it took for him was the people and place he calls home to be put at risk on a daily basis.

You just might feel the same way too after watching our brand new show with Ke`eaumoku all this week on Hawai`i’s award winning Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.

SHE UNDERSTOOD THEY WOULD TAKE HER NEIGHBORHOOD ON VOICES OF TRUTH – ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I’S FUTURE

Imagine waking up one day and finding out that strangers were now in charge of your neighborhood.

Imagine how you’d feel when you learned these same people were planning to give ownership of your land over to the US federal government – all without your input.

That’s the discovery Tamar deFries made, but get this – she found out they’d been planning it quietly for years without telling anyone in her neighborhood.

Naturally we wanted to find out for ourselves what all this was about, so Tamar took us on a tour, high above Honolulu to show us exactly how many neighborhoods would be involved, and what this is really all about.

We were shocked at what we saw, and we think you will be too. See our brand new show with Tamar, so this doesn’t happen to you on Hawai`i’s award winning Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.
