Unfortunately our good friend Mayor Kawakami has gone a bit overboard by withdrawing from the State's Safe Travel Program. Better he had stuck to his earlier plan requiring 2nd and 3rd tests after passengers arrive on Kauai - so at least a few small businesses there can survive.

Good news from the White House and Federal DOT today suggesting there is no regulation in existence at the FAA or DOT that either grants or denies Hawaii from requiring passengers be Covid-19 tested prior to landing here. This is a green light to Gov to open our visitor industry.

Surprise development at the Honolulu Intl Airport where we just learned there is a group of mainland Chinese Nationals seeking asylum from the caronavirus! Stay tuned to this one!

Still uncertain if Chinese quarantined or detained due to the coronavirus at Honolulu International Airport this morning were biological or idealogical asylum seekers or both.
