Ko Hawaii Pae Aina - Pateted Domain

After I went swimming one day when my friends were in town, I "stumbled" upon a meeting - although I think it was meant to be.

Most of the meeting consisted of older white women. What this group was complaining about was how Department of Land and Natural Resources was not (DLNR)Complying with Section 106 which permited allies, friends, and cultural practitioners of the land to be included in development decision making. However, this group Ko Hawaii Pae Aina is a non violent group and extremely inclusive. I was so impressed at the courtesy, gentleness, and love from Aka and Symona. This group and meeting was Run by 2 beautiful Hawaiian women (goddesses) AKa and Symona - held this meeting down at Kealakekua Bay on May 27.

I could spend hours on this site, reading all about the secrets of Hawaii:

When I left the meeting, I wasn't sure if I wanted to get involved in the struggle. The struggle is a long and hard one, battling development, destructive forces, and time. How can we ensure the preservation of the Big Island for future generations? I think Ko Hawaii Pae Aina is the answer.
