Hawaii Governor Neil Abercrombie has already started to outline his themes and goals for his re-election campaign in 2014. At a recent gathering of his supporter, the governor pointed out that he had to make some hard choices during his first term to help pull the state out of tough economic times. Abercrombie added, ”But we have the opportunity now, as a result of some of those hard choices that had to be made, some of those tough decisions that we had to take, some of the sacrifices that people had to make, to bring our state out of chaos, fiscal chaos and chaos in a sense of direction and confidence.”
The governor now hopes that the people of Hawaii would continue to support him as he works to improve early childhood education, reduce energy consumption and stabilize and grow Hawaii’s economy. Abercrombie also hopes to boost the construction industry by creating a “third city” in Kakaako. Abercombie stated, ”We’re going to develop a third city here in Kakaako. We’re going to have workforce housing. We’re going to have early childhood education. We’re going to emphasize living in a community in a way that does not isolate people from one another. We’re going to have a respect for people as they end their years and they have made their contributions, putting them together with a sense of community and ohana that, I’m sorry to say, in some instances, especially in recent times, has been honored only rhetorically.”
