Thank you HiloPuna for your thoughts.
It seems obvious that my own experiences were far more limited than yours. Admittedly my "measured growth" statement was based upon a comparison of the previous administrations unbridled love of development, my conservation oriented philosophy, and how Chris Yuen brought some level of moderation to the process, and certainly not on government as a whole. I may have been blinded by my appreciation of Chris' earlier stand for Makalawena and the fairly limited experiences I had with the Planning Department over the homes I built during his tenure, for which there were plenty of reasons to interface with them. But still, all in all, mine is a limited perspective. Thanks again for sharing your perspective. It certain is an eye opener.
