I have witnessed people losing their homes due to various emergencies like fire, flood, and motor accidents. However, I want to bring attention to something bigger. In the past 9 years that I have been on Maui, I have noticed a pattern. It seems unlikely that a hurricane would miss the Big Island and directly hit Maui, causing fires instead of floods. These fires have affected the most valuable areas of real estate on Maui, such as Lahaina front street, which is worth billions. The locals, particularly the Hawaiians and Kanaka, have been resisting selling their properties to large companies for years. It is not a coincidence that the fires occurred in these precious areas where the Hawaiians and Kanaka were holding out, including Oprah Winfrey's property in Kula.
