Page 2, April 7—13, 2011 Wakīkī Wikiwiki Wire Hyatt extends Aloha to Japan Donation of $30 per stay will go to Japan through Lokahi package. Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa, located at 2424 Kalakaua Avenue, announces that the popular Lokahi package, which donates money to nonprofits, now includes donations for emergency relief aide in Japan. The package includes daily breakfast buffet for two, 10% discount on Na Ho’ola Spa treatments, and a $30 donation per stay to the statewide fundraising initiative Aloha for Japan. The offer is valid for Lokahi rooms booked from April 1 through June 30, 2011 for travel dates April 1 through December 27, 2011. Rates start at $249 per night with a three-night minimum. “The Aloha for Japan campaign donates money directly to agencies who have been serving disaster-affected regions since the first moments of the earthquake and resulting tsunami in Japan. They in turn deliver vital medical relief, food, and more to those in need during natural disasters and we hope that our guests will share in the effort to help the organization as they serve the local communities,” says David Lewin, general manager at Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa. Hyatt Regency Waikiki launched the Lokahi package two years ago with a portion of each sale going to the Waikiki Community Center. In that time, nearly $30,000 was raised for community efforts to help children and seniors. To find out more about the Lokahi Package, please visit waikiki.hyatt.com. Information about Aloha for Japan is available online at alohaforjapan.com Hawai‘i Convention Center’s Regional Director of Accounts for the Northeast honored with prestigious ‘New Star’ Award The Hawai‘i Convention Center is pleased to announce that Brian Reaver, regional director of accounts for the Northeast, has been selected as this year’s recipient of the ‘New Star’ award by the New York Society of Association Executives (NYSAE.)

Page 3, April 7—13, 2011 Page 3 Wakīkī Wikiwiki Wire Hawaiian Airlines Reaffirms Commitment to Japan No schedule reductions to Tokyo, Osaka service to commence as planned in July Prompted by the announcements of other carriers’ intentions to reduce service to Japan, Hawaiian Airlines today reaffirmed its commitment to Japan and its broader plan of expansion in Asia. President and Chief Executive Officer Mark Dunkerley said, “The earthquake and the tsunami which hit Japan on March 11 devastated the littoral communities in North Eastern Japan. All of us at Hawaiian send our deepest sympathy to those who have lost loved ones and who themselves face an uncertain future as the process of rebuilding gets underway. As a company, and as citizens of an ocean side community with close ties to Japan, we have a special connection to those in need in Japan and we are engaged in a broad array of efforts aimed at supporting them as they rebuild their lives. We wish we could do more.” “While other airlines have announced service reductions to Japan, we have no plans to reduce our daily service to Tokyo, and we remain committed to launching new service to Osaka beginning July 12. It is clear from our current results that we are seeing a significantly less severe downturn in traffic than is being reported by other companies in the airline and tourism sectors. At the same time, discussions with our travel partners in Japan indicate that while a downturn is currently upon us, they expect a recovery in bookings after a short interval.” Dunkerley and other members of Hawaiian’s management team visited Japan early last week and had the opportunity to gauge the impact of the earthquake, tsunami and Fukushima power plant developments on outbound travel from Japan. “The purposeful and business-like approach of Japan to recovering from these events is an example to us all. One cannot fail to be impressed by how quickly daily activity has returned to near normality in Tokyo and Osaka. It is clearly the case that those of us watching developments in Japan from afar have little appreciation for what is actually happening in these cities that are some distance away from where devastation has occurred.” Dunkerley observed that Hawaiian’s Tokyo service serves primarily Japan-originating travelers who appear to be more inclined to keep their travel plans than are non-Japanese residents who had planned travel to Japan.

    Introduction Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik German Institute for International and Security Affairs China and Japan: A Rupture Unhealed Kay Möller / Markus Tidten SWP Comments The recent Sino-Japanese dispute has not been brought to an end with Prime Minister Koizumi’s apology for Tokyo’s war record and his subsequent meeting with China’s head of state, Hu Jintao. Rather than concerning historical issues, the background to the dispute concerns Japan’s attempts to adopt a higher regional and international security profile and the inclusion of Taiwan in US-Japanese alliance planning.
