so how can the national park foster better relations with local residents that's the question that interests the great from germany together with the ranges they want to convey the message that the park is keen to support local residents one man's lights the example of another park nearby one shekel feat one at the end of each year the park gives twenty percent of its income to the local community they can then use their money to buy something for the benefit of the entire village. that would be a good model here and help local people to see tourism as an opportunity to earn money for visitors from abroad would also get a taste of the traditional lifestyle of people living in the park. the volunteers are committed to a long term partnership with the national park and the local community they want to know what other activities could interest visitors like wading through wetlands. it's just what we need to preserve this to attract tourists. we'd like to offer something that other reserves don't have so that people say if we want to see that we need to go to buy you know just a bit of a night t

although the monument consists of multiple sites, national park service materials refer to pearl harbor as the world war ii valor of the pacific national monument. h.r. 5706 will separate pearl harbor from the valor monument and establish it as the pearl harbor national memorial. pearl harbor is a physical representation of the day that will live in infamy. the strides made in u.s.-japan relations and the u.s. entry into world war ii. this historic site dedeserves a name to match its separate identity and significance from the rest of the monument. along with the well-known u.s.s. arizona memorial, pearl harbor is host to the u.s.s. missouri, the u.s.s. submarine museum and park. together these sites attracts over a million visitors to hawaii and pearl harbor every year, serving as a significant contributer to hawaii's tourist-driven economy. h.r. 5706 would also establish the national monument as the national historic site. as some of you know, i am the granddaughter of two internees. one of whom was interned there, which i did not learn about until very late in his life. in fact, many
