October 28, 2008 by admin

In the August 30th edition of Na Kai `Ewalu, Noe Tanigawa and Kaho`onei Panoke are joined by Clyde Namu`o, Administrator of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs. In this segment, we discuss a few areas of economic development for native Hawaiians currently worked on by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs. We discuss the newly restructured Malama loan program allowing native Hawaiians easier access to an application for a business loan, home improvement loan or education loan. We also touch on the work of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs in gaining federal approval for OHA to become a Procurement and Technical Assistance Center which assists businesses with training and technical support for businesses wanting to bid on federal contacts.
