Dear Mr. Apo, It  is wonderful to have an opinion.  It's courageous to stand out against the crowd.  Yes, speaking your mind is good.  Mr. Apo your support seems to be directed in favor of the Hawaii Long Line Association's position of doing business as usual. The HLA is the primary source for human labor trafficking, over fishing their quota's and do not employ any Hawaiian's in the fishery.  Okay,  I read your article, found it lacking in substance and relevance to environmental or conservation concerns.  As you indicated some people may say that you are influenced by "third parties who come from far away places".  I hope that you are not influenced by the 1,200 or so economic slaves that are from foreign counties and confined on American vessels in Port Honolulu.  You are the last person that I expect to be against the Papahanaumokuakea expansion.  Excessive exploitation concerns might be directed toward the Howard Hugh's Corporation or to Disney.  Please think about it.
