TMT has stated they would prefer to have more local Hawaiians take a share in the observatories, especially TMT, as astronomers, engineers and technicians.

Unfortunately for Hawaii island, there is this growing perception and movement that becoming more primitive is the answer for all imagined problems. This regression into more and more primitive mindsets, lifestyles, ignorance, and other mumbo-jumbo is leading to a young population that is almost ineducable, ignorant, filled with misinformation, and worst of all, terrified of mathematics. One thing I have noticed with immersion Hawaiians is they view mathematics as almost being some evil ju-ju. The observatories can't just hire Hawaiians because they are Hawaiians. That would be discriminatory plus they need people that can actually do meaningful work. This divergence is a massive problem for this island and will lead to bigger and bigger problems developing if technological advancement is shunned in favor of dancing naked on the beach all day, smoking meth and bath salts, and carjacking, house squatting, and thievery providing spending money.
