Energy Expert to Hawaii: Expect $6-a-Gallon Gas -- Honolulu Civil Beat
(2011-04-04) As long as the U.S. - Hawaii included - maintains its addiction to oil for transportation, Fereidun Fesharaki says he expects prices will top $6-a-gallon (or $200 per barrel for oil) in less than five years and have a "dramatic" impact on the country.
"On the demand side, there's only one fat boy in the room: that's the U.S.," Fesharaki said. "Twenty-seven countries of the European community combined use less than the U.S. At the moment, China, India, Japan, Korea combined are 25 percent, 20 percent less than the U.S.," he said, noting that the U.S. makes up 40 percent of global consumption.

Addressing buildup uncertainties -- Pacific Daily News
(2011-04-10) Denny Roy, an expert on Asia-Pacific military affairs, said Friday that the triple-disasters may actually solve one of the largest buildup controversies in Japan. Roy is a senior fellow with the East-West Center in Hawaii, a congressionally established think tank.
If the military relief efforts help soften public opinion of American troops in Japan, an unpopular plan to relocate a Marine airbase within Okinawa could become more palatable to the unwelcoming Japanese public, Roy said.
Are we intolerant -- The Pioneer
(2011-04-11) "...the idea was not to portray the country as an intolerant nation but to talk about those of our fellow citizens who did not seem to appreciate the idea of pluralist tolerance which formed the structural framework of democracy," justifies Adhikari on the title of the extended essay which might have provoked a lot of those, otherwise, who go by the titles. ..."This extended essay is about those Indians who see pluralism as phoney and tolerant secularism as hypocritical or irrelevant to an existence revolving around narrow religious, regional or ethnic identities," explains Adhikari.
