League of Women Voters forum panelists' presentations:

      On Saturday October 27, the Honolulu League of Women Voters held a Transportation Forum at the State Capitol with four panelists, Mr. Toru Hamayasu, City Director of Transportation Planning, Dr. Panos Prevedouros, UH. Professor of Traffic Engineering, Councilmember Ann Kobayashi and Councilmember Gary Okino.

      Ms. Pearl Johnson, Chair of the League’s Transportation Committee, presided and the League's JoAnn Maruoka was the Moderator. Each of the panelists spoke for ten minutes, then followed more than an hour of public comments and questions from the public with responses from the four panelists. The meeting ended with each of the panelists having two minutes for their summation. The entire program took two hours.

       The video tape of the League's entire forum will air on Olelo Ch. 49 at the following times:
11/11/07 Sun 12:30 pm, 11/12/07 Mon 2:00 pm, 11/18/07 Sun 10:30 am, 11/26/07 Mon 2:00 pm.

       Do not miss this program. Since a good deal of it revolves around the accusations made about lying it would be useful if you first see the "21 Lies" video, which lasts 26 minutes, otherwise Mr. Okino's presentation will not make sense.

      While we recommend seeing the entire program, for those who wish to select just the panelists’ individual presentations, we have broken them out as follows and have not included the public’s comments and questions.
