Kauilapele is a blogger who posts official publications from the Kingdom and comments upon them.
https://kauilapele.wordpress.com. I appreciate the service he provides in helping us reach people
with the messages from the Kingdom. He has asked me to comment on the Proclamation of First Citizen
that the King just issued.
My commentary begins with the proposed construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) project on
the sacred mountain of Mauna Kea. When the construction began on this project, the Hawaiian
community erupted. The Kings responses are found in the Protecting the Sacred Mountain section of
the Kingdom website at www.KingdomofHawaii.info.
What the King saw was the political descendants of those who overthrew the Kingdom of Hawaii Crown
and Government and stole the lands belonging to the Crown and Government continuing their policies
of exploiting Kingdom lands.
He also saw the disrespect for the traditional Hawaiian faith that has divided his people since the
missionaries came. A mountaintop where only Kahunas and people with familial connection entered
and no permanent structures were allowed now has more than a dozen telescopes built upon it. The
TMT was the last straw.
As thousands came out to protect the mountain, the King saw the dawning of the next phase of
Kingdom restoration. The time had come for him to step fully into his position as King without
reservation. The time had come to begin the process of transferring the functions of the occupying
government to the Kingdom Government, such as taxation.
If the occupying power chooses to continue its illegal seizure of the Kingdom, the King will call upon the
International Court of Justice to convene and hear the case for liberation of the Kingdom.

The King chose Kamakahonu as the meeting place for that hearing because that site was the
headquarters for the government established by King Kamehameha I.
With the position of King paa (fixed), the time had also come to begin building the Government with its
foundation in the citizens.

The Proclamation of First Citizen took the symbolic step of establishing the Government through
granting one person citizenship. This act was not about personalities. There are tens of thousands of
people waiting to become citizens in the restored Kingdom, many of whom have spent decades in the
struggle to restore the nation. This act was about opening the door to creation of the citizenry.
At the same time, in Mikahala Roy, the King did see certain qualities that illuminated key aspects of the
restoration process. She sought to fulfill the kuleana of her lineal descent by fighting to protect and
preserve Kamakahonu. In pursuing that struggle, she called upon the practitioners of the traditional
faith of the Hawaiian people for assistance. She has been steadfast in recognizing and supporting the
King, often standing alone in her convictions. The King honored her Spirit of Aloha by selecting her as
First Citizen.
The fact that she is a woman also brought to the forefront the role of women in balancing the male
energy and bringing peace to the community.
I was personally touched by the message she sent, which is included in the Proclamation, and inspired to
assist the King in the preparation of the Proclamation.
Overall, the message of the Proclamation is that unity and love pave the way for the completion of our
task to restore the Kingdom to its place in the community of nations and the traditional faith to its
rightful place within the faith community.

For the Kingdom of Hawaii,
