On October 16, 2012, the Waikiki 20/20 Conference will be held at the Hawaii Convention Center with a goal of having the public and private sectors work together to shape the community’s future over the next twenty years. Waikiki is currently the top tourist destination of the state, but it is also the most densely populated section for Hawaii residents. Event coordinators feel that it is critical that everyone living and working together in Waikiki are on the same page moving forward. President of the Waikiki Improvement Association, Rick Egged, stated, “This is an important effort that will help make Waikiki more livable and more attractive to residents and visitors for years to come. We’ve come along way since 20 years ago, and we would like to continue the discussion and re-engage the community about Waikiki’s future.”
Chairman of the Waikiki Neighborhood Board, Bob Finley, added, “Without planning you just kind of muddle along. The (Waikiki Improvement Association), the visitor industry and Waikiki residents need to have goals for the future. This is a good place to start.”
