August 5, 2004

Lt. Governor Aiona conferred with Chen Hui Min, chairman of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade in Pudong. Chen, a member of the Shanghai Political Consultative Committee, hosted a one-on-one business matchmaking luncheon for the Hawai`i delegation. To help promote Hawai`i products and services in emerging Chinese markets, Lt. Governor Aiona joined a state delegation meeting this week with high-level government officials and business executives in Shanghai, Beijing and Tianjin. In addition to conferring with mayors of the three cities, Lt. Governor Aiona is leading a series of discussions with officials for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and with ministers of tourism development, environmental protection, and education and training. The Lt. Governor is also meeting with leaders of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade. In December 2001, the State of Hawai`i and the council signed a memorandum of understanding to facilitate international economic and business transactions. The Lt. Governor’s mission to China coincides with a weeklong exhibit of Hawai`i businesses and entertainers at a new culture, shopping, dining and entertainment center in Shanghai called Xintiandi.

During an official eight-day mission to China, Lt. Governor Aiona met with high-level Chinese officials to promote business opportunities and economic development for Hawai`i. He is shown speaking to the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade. With a membership of over 77,000 companies, the council is the largest institution promoting foreign trade in China.

December 20, 2002 - Message from Outgoing Hawaii GOP Chairman

Aloha:

Well, Gang, we are coming to the end of a very exciting and eventful year.  As a Party, we have taken some enormous steps in bringing balance to Hawaii politics by winning the Governor's seat, picking up two more seats in the State Senate to bring our number up to five, and two more Republican Mayors bringing that number up to three out of four counties.  We are very hopeful
about our future and the type of leadership Governor Lingle will provide our State.  Under Governor Lingle's leadership, we will truly improve life in Hawaii for all kama`aina.

I want to take this time to inform all of our members that this past Saturday, I stepped down as Chairman of the Hawaii Republican Party to take on a new challenge in my life as Director of Hawaiian Home Lands.  It has been a pleasure and a great honor to serve you as your Executive Director and Chairman.  I have learned much from each and everyone of our members and it will be these lessons learned that will continue to help shape me as a person throughout my life.

The State Committee voted unanimously to install Dr. Brennon Morioka as the interim Chairman to serve out the remainder of this term.  Brennon has also served the Party well as an officer on the State Executive Committee, and more recently, as our Finance Director during this past year.  We have all the confidence in Brennon and I ask you to offer him the same type of support that you all have so unselfishly given me over the past four years.

I will continue to be vigilant in my efforts to help the Party grow and build upon our current momentum.  The Party has the opportunity to play an integral role in the way Hawaii goes about its business and we must now demonstrate the type of leadership that we said we would.

I will be notifying the public through various media sources in the coming week about our Party's transition, but wanted to give our Republican Ohana a heads-up before it occurred.

On behalf of my family, I want to thank you for giving me some of the best experiences in my life and allowing me to be a part of Hawaii's political history.  I will always remember my time here as Chairman of the Hawaii Republican Party.

Aloha and Mahalo,

Micah A. Kane

December 2, 2002 - Republican Governor Linda Lingle Inaugural Banquet (by invitation only) at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel

November 6, 2002

Linda Lingle won a historic victory last night to become Hawaii’s first woman governor and the first Republican to hold the office in 40 years

Lingle/Aiona beat Democratic opponent with 197,009 votes, or 52 percent, vs. 47 percent, or 179,647 votes, for her Democratic opponent Lt. Gov. Mazie Hirono.

Lingle, the 49-year old former Maui mayor, started running for governor shortly after barely losing to Gov. Ben Cayetano four years ago.

She drove a focused campaign aimed at that stronghold of the Democratic Party, the office of governor.

The state’s last Republican governor was William Quinn, who lost the office in 1962.

Go to the Star-Bulletin link for the COMPLETE report

November 5, 2002

Apparently the picture of Pres. Bill Clinton holding a jacket that read Linda Lingle and Duke Aiona – "A New Beginning" – originated as a joke within the Hawaii Government Employers Association. The HGEA was the organizer that flew Clinton to Hawaii at a cost of $100,000 to rally for Lt. Gov. Mazie Hirono and is the organizational force behind Hirono's campaign.

But when an employee sent the picture out of the office via email to the Union News Network (UNN writers are supporters of Lingle and Aiona), the picture didn't look so funny anymore –- especially plastered across the cover of the most recent edition of UNN.

Sources at UNN say Russell Okada, head of the HGEA, was so mad about the picture that he threatened to sue UNN. UNN reportedly said something back to the effect of "Too bad so sad."
