No nā makahiki ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelua mau makahiki, ʻo kā mākou pilina me kā mākou mau mea kūʻai aku a me nā hoaaloha lōʻihi i Saudi Arabia he mea hōʻike i ka mana o ka hilinaʻi a me ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i ka honua ʻoihana. ʻO ka ʻoihana kāmaʻa, e like me nā mea ʻē aʻe, e alakaʻi pinepine ʻia e nā ʻano a me ka hoʻokūkū, akā kūkulu ʻia kā mākou hui ʻana ma luna o nā waiwai like a me nā pahuhopu.

Hana pū mākou me kā mākou mau hoa Saudi e hoʻokele i ka ʻoihana mākeke paʻakikī. ʻAʻole i kōkua wale kēia hui ʻana i ka ulu ʻana o kā mākou ʻoihana, akā ua hoʻoikaika pū i nā pilina hohonu e hele ana ma mua o nā hana maʻalahi. Ua lilo kā mākou mau mea kūʻai kahiko i mau hoaaloha, a ua hoʻonui kēia pilina i kā mākou hoʻomohala ʻoihana.

ʻO ka hilinaʻi like ʻole ka pōhaku kihi o kā mākou pilina. Ma kahi ʻoihana kahi i hilinaʻi nui ʻia, ua hilinaʻi mau kā mākou mau hoa Saudi i kā mākou huahana a me nā lawelawe.

Ua hui pū mākou i nā luʻina a ua hoʻokō pū i nā mea i hoʻokō ʻia, e hoʻopaʻa ana i kā mākou pilina ma ke ʻano he mau hoa no ka ulu like ʻana.

Hauʻoli mākou i ka wā e hiki mai ana a makemake mākou e hoʻomau i kēia huakaʻi o ka ʻike like ʻana a me ka ulu ʻana. E hoʻokele pū mākou i ka ʻano hoʻololi o ka ʻoihana kāmaʻa a hōʻoia i ka ikaika a me ka hua o kā mākou hui no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana.
