Outrigger employees step
forward to assist those in need
Last Monday, Tropical Cyclone Larry, with
winds up to 180 mph, smashed into the coastal
community of Innisfail—about 60 miles south
of Cairns, Queensland, Australia. The storm, the
worst cyclone to hit the region in decades, caused
extensive damage. Amazingly, no one was killed and
authorities reported that fewer than ten people were
taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
Property damage was severe, however. Hotels
and resorts in the Innisfail area, along with homes,
hospitals, and the area’s sugar and banana plantations,
were hit hard. Many people were left homeless,

E-Mail Policy Reminder
By Alan White
  With a recent increase in the number
of observed and reported abuses of our
Company e-mail systems and platforms,
it seems that a timely reminder on the
business nature of our corporate e-mail
system is in order.
 
1. The Policy on Electronic Mail, from our
Employee Handbook, is reprinted on
the right, as a refresher. It stresses the
business nature of our e-mail systems.
2. Chain letter initiation, propagation
and/or forwarding is never appropriate 
using Company e-mail.
3. SPAM is
increasing at a
faster rate than
legitimate e-mail.
Do not initiate
SPAM, and
if you receive
significant
amounts of SPAM, please advise our
System Administrators, through the IT
Help Desk, and we will improve the
filters to reduce or eliminate it.
 
4. Attachments to e-mail are growing as
images and other data files are routinely
attached. While most of these are
definitely business related, please be aware
that attachments over 5-Mb in size are
potentially problems for all other mail
throughput in the system. Please attempt
to limit attachments to less than 5-Mb.
5. Maintenance tools are getting better,
and easier for you to use to help with
your use of e-mail as a business tool. IT
will be sending all users, the following
guidelines:
 
• SPAM – how to use and tune SPAM filtering from your workstation
• WebMail – how to securely access your business E-mail from any web browser
I think we all agree that the
convenience, speed, and reliability of this
business tool has made our work lives easier.
Let’s all continue to use it responsibly.
Outrigger/OHANA Hotels & Resorts’
Policy on Electronic Mail
• Use of Electronic Mail
The electronic mail system
shall be used primarily
for the communication of
business-related messages or
information, but incidental
and occasional personal
messages may be permitted
where appropriate, subject
to the standards and
procedures set forth below.
• Ownership of Electronic Mail Messages
All electronic mail messages, including incidental and occasional
personal messages, are and will remain the property of Outrigger.
Therefore, none of the messages may be sold, transmitted, conveyed,
or communicated in any way to anyone outside of the Company
without the express written authorization.
• Privacy and Outrigger’s Right to Inspect Electronic Mail Messages
The electronic mail system, and all messages created or
communicated on the system, will be subject to inspection and
search by designated Company E-Mail representatives at all
times. However, monitoring of electronic mail messages is not
intended to be a routine matter, but something that is done in
a manner consistent with the Company’s legitimate rights and
business needs. Thus, no one other than designated E-Mail
representatives will be permitted to inspect or search another
employee’s E-Mail messages without the express written consent
of that employee.
• No Solicitation/No Distribution Policy for E-Mail
Use of the electronic mail must be consistent with the Company’s
general policy which forbids employees from distributing literature
in support of any cause, product, individual, or organization on
Company premises during working time or in working areas, or
soliciting during their working time or during the working time of
the employee being solicited. The electronic mail system may not
be used for such prohibited solicitation or distribution.
• Harassment-Free and Equal Employment Opportunity Policies
Use of the electronic mail system must be consistent with the
Company’s general policies which prohibit harassment of any other
employees and which guarantees equal employment opportunities
to all qualified individuals. Therefore, creation or communication of

Society of Seven at Hawaii Theatre
for Special Engagement
Discounted tickets available for Outrigger and OHANA employees
By Fran Kirk
The Society of Seven (SOS), led by original members
Tony Ruivivar and Bert Sagum, along with several special
guests, will make a special three-show appearance at the
historic Hawaii Theatre next month as part of an international
tour the group is currently on.
Filipino headliner Martin Nievera has been added to
the line-up when the Society of Seven and Lani Misalucha
perform three concerts on April 7 and 8. This will be an extra
special performance, as the group will be paying tribute to the
late Gary Bautista, group member who died unexpectedly in
January. Standing in for Gary will be former member Little
Albert Maligmat.
In addition to being part of the musical tribute, Martin
Nievera also will host the shows on Friday, April 7, at 7:30 p.m.,
and Saturday, April 8, at 2:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
Presented by OHANA Hotels & Resorts in conjunction
with Outrigger Entertainment, the concerts are a follow-up to
SOS and Lani’s sold-out engagement at the Hawaii Theatre in
February 2005.
Tickets are currently on sale at the Hawaii Theatre Box
Office, 1130 Bethel Street, for $45, $55, and $65, with a $5
discount for Outrigger and OHANA employees. Just present
your employee ID at the time of purchase. The Hawaii
Theatre’s Restoration Charge is extra.
Lani Misalucha will be one of the special guests joining the Society of Seven
at a special three-show appearance at the historic Hawaii Theatre

Crooner Martin Nievera is often called the “Concert
King” of the Philippines. He spent much of his childhood in
Hawaii as his father, Filipino balladeer Bert Nievera, was then
a part of the Society of Seven.
Since returning to the Philippines in 1982 to pursue his
musical career, Martin has become a top pop artist and awardwinning recording star, as well as a popular television host.
With platinum albums to his credit, he is an international
superstar who has toured the U.S., Canada, Guam, the
Middle East, and Singapore.
The Society of Seven, Waikiki headliners for more than
three decades, joined with Lani Misalucha, “Philippines’
Entertainer of the Year,” for a just-concluded, year-long
engagement at Bally’s in Las Vegas. They are now on a
national and international tour, having just sold out shows in
Guam and on the Mainland, with the Honolulu engagements
part of the line-up.
From singing to impersonations, from dancing to
comedy, Society of Seven with Lani Misalucha has been
praised in Las Vegas for combining “every show on the
strip on one stage.” The lavish production coming to the
Hawaii Theatre incorporates blues, ballads, humor, and the
outstanding instrumental talents of the SOS members--Tony
Ruivivar, Bert Sagum, Randy Abellar, Roy Guerzo, Hoku
Low, and Wayne Wakai, plus former member Little Albert
Maligmat, who has replaced Bautista for the engagements.
Bringing down the house with SOS regularly at the
Jubilee Theater at Bally’s Casino was their “first female
member,” Filipina superstar Lani Misalucha, easily considered
Asia’s singing sensation and known as the “Diva’s Diva.”
Known for her full five octaves of heavenly music, Lani easily
shifts from ballad to pop rock to jazz, singing everything
from opera to the hits of Whitney Houston and others she
impersonates in the show.
With five albums to her credit, including her recent
“Loving You” for Viva Records, she was named “Philippines’
Entertainer of the Year 2002” in the Aliw Awards. Her honors
also include Musika Manila for her song “One More Time,”
Katha Awards for her “All Heart” album, Asia Songfest Award
for her “Handle with Care” and the Awit Awards “Best
Female Recording Artist” of 2000 for “Can’t Stop Loving
You.” She has appeared in solo concerts in Los Angeles at
the Pasadena Civic Auditorium and The Grand Olympic
Auditorium and has crossed over from the Filipino audience
to the mainstream.
The Hawaii Theatre shows are a production of Rosy
Cheeks Entertainment Group, Inc.
Resort Management Conference
By Dr. Richard Kelley
At the
conference, attended
by nearly 200 resort
professionals, I
was a member of
three panels, which
discussed trends in
hotel economics and
employment issues.
My co-panelists
included Charlie
Peck, CEO of Destination Hotels & Resorts, and John
Beckert, CEO of ClubCorp, Inc.
Destination Hotels & Resorts, based in Colorado,
operates 34 hotels, resorts, and golf clubs, including a number
of condominium properties at Wailea, Maui, including the
deluxe Wailea Beach Villas, which just opened last month,
which they manage.
ClubCorp, Inc., based in Texas, operates 170 golf courses,
country clubs, business clubs, sports clubs, and resorts.
Recently it announced a partnership with golf professional
Ernie Els and Haseko to develop a deluxe golf course,
Hoakalei, on Oahu’s Ewa coastline.
Mr. Peck, Mr. Beckert, and I had
slightly different views on the issues
facing Travel & Tourism for the next
few years but generally agreed on
many things. We all felt that if there
are no catastrophic events with global
fallout, business should continue to
be good for the next two years. More
people are traveling, and the supply
of hotel rooms is growing only slowly
right now. Summarizing the feeling,
Jan Freitag, Vice President of Smith
Travel Research, said, “It should be
great through ’08.”
One thing we definitely agreed
on was the fact that there will be
a great need for skilled workers
in the hospitality industry in the
coming years. There will be many
opportunities in all areas of the
Travel & Tourism industry. Talking
to the University of Denver students
at the conference, I found out that
almost every one of them already
had a job waiting for them when
they graduate in May. They should
have an exciting life ahead of them
in this great industry, and I wish
them well.
Dr. Richard Kelley chats with Hotel, Restaurant & Tourism Management student Cassie Dando
This week, I participated in the Resort Management
Conference co-sponsored by the University of Denver at the
historic golf resort at Pinehurst, North Carolina. It was an
interesting event for a number of reasons.
The venue was spectacular. The largest golf resort in
America, Pinehurst has eight world-class courses where some of
the most prestigious tournaments have been played, including
the PGA Championship, the Ryder Cup Matches, and the U.S.
Open. Golf legends such as Ben Hogan, Sam Snead, Arnold
Palmer, and Jack Nicklaus have all tested their skills at Pinehurst.
There are five hotels within the resort offering a variety of
accommodations and wonderful Southern hospitality. I stayed
in the stately Carolina hotel, which opened its doors in 1901.
The veteran staff made me feel right at home. Unfortunately,
I did not get a chance to meet the hotel’s legendary senior
bellman, Ralph Gacomo. He started working there 67 years
ago! Now, at age 95, he still reports to work two days a week!
A number of students from the University of Denver’s
School of Hotel, Restaurant & Tourism Management took
advantage of their spring break to assist at the conference.
It was a great opportunity and learning experience for these
young professionals, and I enjoyed chatting with them during
the three days I was at Pinehurst.

Moments of Aloha
Outrigger Condominium Collection
“I am writing to inform you that while my family was visiting
Hawaii, we stayed at the Outrigger Condominium Resort on
the Big Island and enjoyed it immensely. Every aspect of our
stay was excellent: the view, the service, and the condo. The
first thing I noticed was how immaculate the landscaping was.
All the plants were beautiful and made one feel like they were
truly in Hawaii. The pool, workout center, and shopping area
right across the way was excellent and gives one something to do
while spending time at the resort. Along with these aspects, the
condo was beyond what we had originally expected; it was well
decorated, clean, and had all the amenities needed. We especially
appreciated the great service we received. If we happened to
leave one dish in the sink, it was cleaned and put away by the
time we returned. On top of this, we enjoyed seeing how you
work towards keeping the environment as unpolluted as possible
through only washing the towels that absolutely needed to be.
We definitely valued seeing that you care. My family and I
would like to thank you for the impeccable service we received at
your resort during our visit to Hawaii. Having a beautiful place
to come back to after our long days of site seeing was just what
we needed to make our stay perfect.”

Corporate Reception
“I have friends (and family) visiting Hawaii the end of March
– beginning of April. They wanted to spend a night on Maui
and ride the ferry to Molokai. I was to enquire for overnight
reservations on Maui. I had spoken to both Hilton and
Sheraton before I called Outrigger. In each call, I acknowledged
I didn’t have a definite date; I was enquiring for a basic price
range. My two-minute call to Sheraton and Hilton was met
with politeness – and coldness. The lady answering the phone
for Outrigger properties was polite – and friendly, sounding like
she wanted to help by offering an 800-number to call. Each of
my three calls lasted the same length of time, but the Outrigger
employee was the only employee who conveyed a sense of
wanting to help. Mahalo.”

OHANA Maui Islander
“Please excuse me for not getting
this sooner to offer my deep thanks,
‘mahalo’ and congratulations for such
hard work and continuing great success
with your beautiful Maui Islander of
Lahaina, Maui! February 14 I phoned
your very kind manager there Mr.
Sunardi Li to convey my ‘mahalo’
to him and his staff and hope this
finds all of you doing well. He sure
is a wonderful and kind fellow and
enjoyably busy! As I told him in deep
Sunardi Li
gratitude, respect and admiration,
I just want to personally thank you
and your staff for providing such lovely hospitality, service
and security when I resided at your magnificent Maui Islander
starting this last November 16th for five wonderful nights!
Everyone was so very pleasant and obliging from my first day to
my last, my friends now are anxious to return for more! Clearly
the commitment of your wonderful and hardworking staff
to great quality, fine accommodations and safety truly shines
with genuine Aloha Spirit! Only lovely memories will remain
with me and from those I met staying there, thanks again! My
sincere compliments to all who worked so hard (always with
gracious smiles) to make visitors like myself feel so comfortable,
welcomed and at ease while having a superb visit to Maui. Mr.
Sunardi Li was especially so gracious, generous and helpful when
I was confused about some things then but immediately helped
me to clear things up. I believe there is no accommodation as
pleasant, friendly and Hawaiian as your lovely Maui Islander
which genuinely gives such comfort, leisure and aloha spirit at
its best. My room was very splendid and just what I hoped for.
Those other visitors I met there and here dream and hope of
returning for more fun, mahalo nui loa! Please tell your staff to
continue their fine work and I look forward to another visit,
as my dear friends do, knowing your staff is always doing their
best. Like so many visitors, I long to return to that very unique,
lovely and pleasant island of Maui and especially to stay at your
great Maui Islander.”

and more than 100,000 lost electrical power. Fallen lines also disrupted
communication systems. The storm also caused the temporary shutdown of
Cairns International Airport, and rail service between Townsville and Cairns
was suspended.
Although our resorts in Cairns, Port Douglas, and Palm Cove escaped
relatively unscathed, our Australian ‘ohana mobilized to assist both guests,
whose flights were cancelled, and those in need in the surrounding areas.
Our Australian ‘ohana has shown once again that the Aloha Spirit is
alive and well Down Under. They have pulled together during this difficult
period and are doing a magnificent job of providing service and security
for our guests under adverse conditions. I am very proud of each and every
member of our team.
Our properties in Cairns, Port Douglas, and Palm Cove were spared from the storm’s
destruction – other properties in Cairns did not fare as well.
