You seemed to have benefited greatly considering none of that would have been possible if there was no "occupying regime" in place here in Hawaii.
Clearly, your house that you built in Waipio Valley must have caused, albeit minor, some desecration to what is also considered by some to be "sacred lands."
Did you reach out to everyone and assuage their concerns before you built?
