Tourism loses a friend, U.S. Rep. Mark Takai

7/21/2016

“The members of the Hawai‘i Lodging & Tourism Association are very saddened over the untimely passing of Congressman Mark Takai and join in extending our condolences to Sami and the Takai ohana.

We’ve lost not only a dedicated public servant but a friend to the hospitality industry. Since his election, Mark has been a strong voice for tourism in Washington. He was always open to our concerns and ideas, and was devoted to strengthening the industry. He championed legislation to restore draconian cuts to travel per diem rates in the Department of Defense budget and had a history of advocating for military affiliated meetings and conventions to be held in Hawaii. He met with our HLTA leadership just a few months ago and we were heartened to know at the time that his commitment to doing his very best for Hawai‘i was undiminished by his illness.

On a personal note, I knew Mark since he was president of the University of Hawaii’s student government and worked closely with him over the years as a City Councilmember, mayor, and in other endeavors. He was always enthusiastic, energetic, and full of ideas. In fact, he suggested to me to start the Mayor’s Remembrance Walk, the annual observance of the September 11 attacks in Honolulu.

Our families were close and we shared many precious moments together. Mark will be missed as a representative of the islands, an advocate for our people, a leader, and a dear friend.”

POLICE WON’T HELP 2 Serial Bully women and one of their Exhusband’s software company are

4/7/2023 01:05:10 pm

Contact your local FBI, ICE Terrorist Dept, or government and the San Diego FBI if you have been solicited.

POLICE WON'T HELP - 2 Serial bully women and one of their exhusband's wealthy software company are calling up CEOs and companies to bully a woman and the community around her. Evidence in two text messages with two of the bullies. Saying bad things not a crime San Marcos Sheriff’s Department. Contact your local/highway police if these people call you to follow this woman and send them to her location in the community or along the highway if it is south of La Jolla; and encourage the police to ask the FBI/ICE terrorist Dept. to investigate as this may expedite a federal investigation into this matter.

Please pass this on to your Corporate office and to businesses nearby as we cannot reach all of them. This case and evidence has been submitted to the San Diego FBI with the help our House of Representative’s office in a Congressional Inquiry asking the FBI to investigate. This has yet to be taken seriously and unfortunately the House of Representatives does not have jurisdiction over the FBI. If you have been solicited and believe this behavior can cause the death of this woman or the accidental death of those around her; or is a civil rights violation of this woman and the community around her as the result of the unsupervised protest of large groups of people coming in from all over into the community, please submit information directly to the LOCAL San Diego FBI online. It is believed these people are meaning to harm this woman as they send people to her home asking people to block and charge their cars at this woman while she is driving. People are coming through this neighborhood and are waiting near or in front of this woman’s house. Some of their supporters have been seen on this woman’s front doorstep after already telling them to leave her alone. Some of the core group lives in her neighborhood and they flash their house lights on at night as she drives by. These areas are the responsibility of the FBI. Messages left with the National FBI call center may or may not be sent to the local site however you can submit to both. To ensure that you have been heard contact the Office of Inspector General 202-514- 3435 who does have authority and does oversee the FBI and can pressure them to open the case that is already sitting on their desk waiting to be investigated. An official complaint has already been made here. It is ideal to let them know the House of Representatives has been involved. Government resources suggest also making a complaint to the U.S.Attorney General 1800-544-1106 and to the White House online. All information given online and by phone can be done anonymously. Thank you for your time.

FORWARD:

Dear Management Team,

We are so sorry to bother you about this. But if you find this to be true from connections or your workers have been solicited particularly from the San Marcos, Carlsbad and Encinitas locations in San Diego, please share this with your other companies and any newly hired worker across San Diego and the United States, and even globally as these people are calling outside the San Diego area and outside the country.

They are creating a “gang of companies” telling an untrue made up story, and using their connections to crank call her kids. There are people in this community who are watching these companies come into their area to stalk this lady and are scared. So we are praying for a miracle. We are looking for someone to stand up against this company. The bullies themselves are not bright, but the people who stand behind them are. These two serial bully women will only ‘pick’ on one victim at a time as they are aware if they target more than one, this may allow others to speak up against them. Long term news exposure will keep this bullying group powerless.

It is believed if this woman were to move, these people would and could replicate the mobbing/stalking phenomena to the new location while choosing a new target locally to victimize.

If they call you, they will ask you to provide poor service or to harass this woman. If they can’t get through to you directly, they may try to contact another worker within your company. Most likely they will not target someone who is not local as they need to have someone close by in order to make their story more believable.

The following evidence, even better with this message has been a 100 percent effective in stopping this mobbing/stalking phenomena. The problem is that this company continues to tell this false story to newer companies even when they have lost the support from their older ones by sharing this information.

======

To the community,

**If you have been called by these people or somehow have been involved, please make a San Diego FBI report by searching for the San Diego LOCAL FBI online and do an online "Submit a Tip" - even if it is anonymous. You
