  1. This sounds like another upper-crust scam. Pretend to be a “new resident” until it’s safe to bail out. They’ll probably all rush out to acquire kama’aina cards to get discounts, too. We’ve all seen this type before. Just like all the rich Americans (and others) who bought homes in New Zealand to ride out the financial and political storms (created by them) that might arise, while the rest of us are left to carry on. The irony here is that a lot of the
    outbreaks in various parts of the world have been due to rich folks going to their parties and events all over the world and then bringing the vi rus home with them.

  2. should be 10 million us citizens starting over again in a couple months. why not start again in Hawaii. should be less tourism for a year or 2. offer a years rent up front.

  3. As big city people, we made the decision to retire in Honolulu 20 years ago and never looked back. Hawaii loves its kapunas. Everything we could possibly want or need is within walking distance. I suppose when we cannot live independently anymore, we will have to move back to San Francisco to lessen our children’s burden of looking after us.

    1. Aloha, Judy L.,
      Can I ask which island and which neighborhood you chose? We’re on the mainland now after years on O’ahu but we had been considering a move to the Islands until all this stuff started. But when it’s over…
      One of the things we like about Hawai’i is that it’s halfway to Japan. We lived there for years and loved it, too.
