Wednesday July 21, 9:00 a.m., Kailua-Kona, Hawaii I am Abolghassem Abraham Sadegh the founder of the Universal Realm of the Lord Almighty based on the principles that Believing in God is optional believing in humanity is not. Across the globe each one of us should Be the Savior by: Fighting injustice, helping oneself and others, and doing no harm. Our every word and deed should be considered regarding how they impact our children in perpetuity. Wednesday, July 21, 2021 The Big Island of Hawaii Council, 19th, Session, Kailua-Kona, Hawaii i Happy New Day Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council, My testimony: has to do with the terminology used to refer to the property owner as the "the landlord," and the customer as "the tenant." The phrase "landlord" reminds me of the times when the property owners with titles such as "lord" were in reality masters over those who worked for them. What needs to be done in this respect is to place the property owner and the person renting an apartment, for example, as equals. Property owner on one side and the person renting a place under the HUD Section-8, is in conjunction with Federal government and five years of waiting on the other. In the case of Section-8 housing, the property owner as an advantage of having about 70% of the rent guaranteed and thus should be responsible to carry out its obligations to both cornrnP Ref.Dote the federal government as well as the person renting an apartment, the customer. Thus the phrase the phrase, "Landlord /Tenant Mediation" should be for example replaced with "Property Owner/ Customer Mediation."
