To: Office of Hawaiian Affairs Deirdra Alo From: Lanny Sinkin, Ali'i Mana'o Nui On July 22, the Office of Hawaiian Affairs issued invitations to "leaders from the Hawaiian community" to gather for a pwalu to discuss "the diverse processes toward nation building." As Ali'i Mana'o Nui to Ali'i Nui Mo'i Edmund Keli'i Silva, Jr., I am writing to ask the following questions: 1. OHA did not invite the Ali'i Nui Mo'i to the gathering. Why not? 2. Is the failure to invite the Ali'i Nui Mo'i predicated on his being highly critical of OHA, the Roll Commission, the Danners, etc. and calling for the OHA Trustees to resign? 3. Who else has offered their services as Ali'i Nui Mo'i? 4. Given that the topic is nation building, who among the "leaders from the Hawaiian community" has presented the community with a comprehensive vision and plan for the restored nation, other than the Ali'i Nui Mo'i. www.KingdomofHawaii.info. ("Read the Kingdom Documents: Vision and Plan") 5. Other than the Ali'i Nui Mo'i, who has presented the community with analyses and perspectives on a wide range of issues facing the nation? www.KingdomofHawaii.info. ("Restoring Relations with the United States," "The Most Sacred Place in Maui," "The Roll Commission," etc.) 6. Given that thousands of people now believe that the Ali'i Nui Mo'i is the one who can restore the nation, how does OHA take it upon itself to ignore him and fail to invite him to the gathering. Of course, the true nature of the gathering is the real problem. A State of Hawaii agency is trying to take control of the discussion on restoration of the nation to serve the interests of the occupying power by pursuing destruction of the Kingdom. Not inviting the Ali'i Nui Mo'i is simply part of that overall betrayal of the Kingdom. We understand that you have no legitimate foundation, so you build your house on sand. Mahalo,
