I had a meeting with police officers at the Pearl City Police Station to discuss some safety and nuisance concerns in Waipahu. I explained some of my residents' concerns and the officers explained that they will especially keep an eye on those areas mentioned. In addition, I am working hard with the police to eliminate some of the drug problems in the community.
I presented letters and certificates for student leaders at Waipahu Intermediate School. The presentation was done on-camera to be broadcasted school-wide. I ate lunch with the students and conversed with them. I am especially proud of the work done by the student peer educators who help their classmates by educating them on issues such as drugs and teen pregnancy.
