Blessed to Have Humane Society

Wednesday, November 11th, 2020

We’re blessed to have such a dedicated and compassionate team at the Molokai Humane Society helping control this island’s animal population. In spite of limited enforcement and negligible help from the county, they’ve remained steadfast in their commitment to providing affordable spay/neuter for the people of Molokai at a fraction of what it costs nearly anywhere else. MoHS is a nonprofit. Their responsibility is spay/neuter, and beyond that, the veterinary services they provide are a privilege for this island and there have been many years where there’s been no veterinarian at all.

You might have grown accustomed to 24 hour emergency veterinary services wherever you lived previously.…

‘Done Deal’ Being Investigated

Thursday, November 5th, 2020

Four years ago, many Molokai veterans were not aware of a public meeting that was being held in the name of our organization. And instead of this public meeting being held at Molokai Veterans Caring for Veterans Center, at our invitation, it was held at Kulana ‘Oiwi, and hosted by our DHHL caretakers, Group 70 International, Inc. and our elected State Representative Hawaiian homesteader, as our “done deal” everything is in place. Board of Directors proudly sat in the front row, wearing the colors “KOA KAHIKO.”

We have been patiently waiting, since June 15, 2019, knowing their self-created blunder and shameful arrogance, in their denial with the vote of 38 yes, and the only “no vote” to show up was the “Commander” himself.…

OHA Scam Continues

Wednesday, October 28th, 2020

Because we are where we are, Na Kupuna ‘O Hawaii Nei are wailing in their graves. Hawaii’s State Constitutional Convention of 1978 was the lavatory of deceit in the undermining of “native Hawaiian as amended” self-determination, while at the same time our kupuna were used and are still being used in justifying our political okoles self created OHA scam.

After more than 42 years, including numerous lawsuits by the recognized beneficiaries, our created hewa, parades “Native Hawaiians.” The OHA scam is now open for all the people of this crooked state, with the granted privilege of participation, “self-determination” in “native Hawaiian” affairs.…

Mahalo Mikami Family

Wednesday, October 7th, 2020

Congratulations to the Mikami family for providing 85 years of pharmaceutical services and for always being there for the people of Molokai.

This past week, Molokai Drugs took care of the staff in Kalaupapa by providing the flu vaccine, the supplies, and support. With the help of Glauco Puig-Santana and Dr. Brady, we were able to administer the flu vaccine to 20 of the Dept. of Health and National Park Service staff who were not able to leave Kalaupapa at this time.

Mahalo to the Mikami family.
