KALELEIKI: Aloka Ka Kou. ALAMEDA: Aloha. KALELEIKI: My name is Samuel Kaleleiki. I live in Puna, 15-2727 Hinalea Street. I am here because of this ad, this ad here. It caught my eye. Thirty thousand plus Hawaiians are still on the list. I was on the list for 25 years. In 2005 just received my parcel. I speak directly to the kanaka maolis here; and I think there’s only about 5 or 7 of us here. The rest, look at this picture, look at this total picture of what’s going on. This entire room here is going to plan for the kanaka maolis, going to plan all of this happenings on this moku. I am a member of the Kanaka Council. It also states the iwi on this flyer here, when any time you do development you have to dig up the terrain. In that terrain there are iwis of kanaka maoli’s.The iwi shows ownership of that property, but it’s irrelevant.Wal-Mart in Honolulu took all the iwi of my kupuna in the aina there and put them in containers. They’re still in containers. So kanaka maolis I speak to you directly. You need to demand and command and have everyone here who’s a citizen of the State of Hawaii read Article 12, especially Section 7 of Article 12. It will tell you as planners what you must do, our officials what you must do. It states there firmly. It states that right there. And this flyer is what brought me here today. I could hardly wait to get here to speak. You may just be planners; but like I said I speak directly to the kanaka maolis which probably this room of 20 people is only about 7 or 8 kanaka maolis. Kanaka maolis, you need to demand and command. Also, I urge kanaka maolis also to learn Article 12 and especially Section 7. You’ll be surprised. All the happenings, all the yao yao that’s going on, this dog and pony show that’s being produced, any time the Council sits and they see a kanaka maoli, you see a smirk. That’s the way they grade it, that’s the way they’re raised. We are the only ones that really know the meaning of aloha. Really know what the meaning of aloha means; and that’s love, love for your fellow man. All those others here they spell aloha m-o-n-e-y. We’ve got the super ferry that’s coming here.All those guys in Honolulu going to put their, especially the fishermen, going to fill up their coolers with ice, they’re going to come out to our shorelines here, and fish it, go back to the ferry that evening, go back and sell it. So, again, thank you for listening to me. And I hope I can get one kanaka maoli to research or go find Article 12, Section 7, and if you follow me I have a bunch of it in my automobile; and I’ll be glad to share it with you, also the planners. So, any questions? Thank you very much. ALAMEDA: Questions? Commissioner Siracusa? SIRACUSA: Yes. I had an opportunity to look at that green paper but I believe that the other Commissioners have not. Would you mind passing, would it be okay to pass it along? KALELEIKI: I can read it. Yeah, I can read it or I can pass, leave it here. SIRACUSA: Just pass it along, that would be okay, yeah.
