Remembering Hoʻolako l987: We Are Enriched

The message to arriving passengers at Honoluiu lnternational Airport is "Aloha!" Thanks to Office of Hawaiian Affairs Trustee and Ho'olako 1987 President Thomas K. (Unele Tommy) Kaulukukui Sr.The message is contained in a series of 4 foot by 8 foot banners placed strategically around the airport. It is encircled by a colorful, giant eamation lei and the Ho'olako log with the words, "We are enriched." The banners were presented by Kaulukukui to airport manager Barry Fukunaga, pictured at right, during Oct. 19 ceremonies commemorating the 25th anniversary of the John Rodgers Terminal at the airport. Fukunaga expressed appreciation for Kaulukukui's gift and said the banner will be displayed at entry ways where they will weleome arriving visitors. During a radio lnterview, Kaulukukui explained: "We wanted to leave something like a legacy to commemorate the Year of the Hawaiian . . . so that the impact will remain after the end of 1987. Over one mlllion tourists pass through Honolulu lnternational Airport, and we want them to receive the message of Aloha the first thing after they land in Hawaii."
