Never heard of the Aloha 5, I'll try to remember it.
I printed it and it's now in my wallet.
Aloha, EightFingers. The literal translation from Hawaiian language to English is sometimes difficult. Specifically, the word "lokahi", in this instance, means both (jmo).

Lokahi - meaning harmony, peace within, to unite
When our kupuna spoke in Hawaiian (when we were little, and they didn't want us to know what was going on...[

]), the context in which words were used was different, depending on the conversation. Also, the Hawaiian language used today is very different from the Hawaiian spoken when I was a child. JMO.
bananahead, you are so right! One of my all time favorites (I still refer to them on occasion) is NA NA I KE KUMU (Volume I & II).

Welcome, Hanley. Jobs are a fallacy and over rated. Over 60% of taxes go towards the military industrial complex to kill others and take over their land and resources. Skills like growing food and self sufficiency will feed yourself and others. Bring lots of life skills.

Just bring honesty and integrity and a willingness to work hard and enjoy life.
Also bring a shipping container and a strong padlock; otherwise you may not need to worry about what to give to Hawaii.
